Yeah late bday gift to myself. Was thinking of using Orange but I saw someone's spreemcycle bike and i didn't want to copy. Just going to leave it white for now. Don't know about the rear panels yet but, I start building the motor up first so I could see if it needs cutting.

More pics and an video of first start up.

Looks pretty good.

I am concerned about the angle that you motor mount is installed.

It should lay flat.

It may mess with the distance and angel of the rear shock.

Have you test fit this all together yet?

[sprite2011]

@Tjamz, I carefully studied the angle of the motor and it will not be an issue. The carb nicely sits flat, suspension location will be modified and unless the motor doesn't like running at an angle of 3-5 degress max of suspension extension then we have a problem.

SHE LIVES AGAIN!!!! BUWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Rich is busy with his career and unable to complete my custom shock mount so, I will temporarily make one in order to tune/break-in my BBK. Will post more pictures of my White-Lightning after I install the front plastic pieces on and my one off custom shock mount.

This is what she looks like currently. Mocking up my suspension mount.

looking nice. just out of curiosuty did you replace the spree fork bearings and races with the elite ones?

[sprite2011]

Use I simply just swap them out. The spree bearing were all over the place. Stupid I think!

[Mystic]

yea I did too, the spree ones where just rolling around in the races with sticky 20 something grease.

[sprite2011]

I am 80% complete. Made my own shock mount in 5 minutes with steel plates. However thinking about doing double rear shock for even damping on both sides. Bike height is perfect! Engine sits flat when sat on! Starts up easily and purrs at idle! I tell you what, this pulls hard from start... I will post go pro videos of break in and your typical driving around the block annoying my neighbors. Need to put the front plastic on after Honda calls me to pick up my speedo and front brake cable. Stay tuned!

This is what I have so far with this project Spree. Tuned it yesterday and I feel satisfied so far with the way it is performing.

you should put the other half of the shroud on that head before you run it too much looks great thought. Is that the shock mount made by rich?

Can't find the other half I think it didn't have it when I got it. Mount was made by me since, Rich is busy with his priorities I couldn't just sit and wait so I fabricated my own one piece .25" bracket.

Do you have an elite shock laying around bc I need another to fab something.

You should be alright without the other half of the shroud.

The cover you have on there is doing it's job and pushing air over cooling fins, the hot air can exit easier and quicker now. Mine is the same way and temps are fine.

I think i have an extra shock or two if needed.

[sprite2011]

I found the other shroud and I just installed it. Hey hey evilone my friend! Do you mind sending me a shock, I will pay for shipping?
