60inch wheel base
Did yesterday in between repairs and customers.
Small off set of the mount and braces for clearance issues

Rear Braces for the seat/shock mount location.
Today I finally got some time to my self to do some work on the Rail..
Try ing to get it al finished to test on the next race in February.
Made a seat bracket. tomorrow i might go in and do the seat it self.
Then incorporated a shock mount into the seat brackets
Modified a shock and made it a solid rod, all mounted up and almost ready!
Finished Rolling chassis finally! stil need to add more small brackets.
thanks guys!! I really appreciate the compliments!
So today was a pretty good monday , spent most my time texting Ben aka "Kryptonite" and doing some small work on my bike.
Fist I finally got to work on the seat, Used some 1/4 Pvc sheets that are used to make sign boards.
This is what i came out with
Then decided to do a gas tank LOL, this is my donor
After smelling up the shop, some cutting and welding i have this. The Razz oil cap fits perfectly in it as a cover
Didnt get to do any mounts yet but thats tomorrows project if i dont have more repairs. Came out pretty good, so far. Still have to do some padding and a cover as well.. maybe hehee
Finished the head tube gusset finally...
was sanding and wire brushing that thing clean. Painted it black for now, cant leave anything bare here haha.
Its all done , tomorrow il go in and start the wiring and finish up the gas tank and other few ends.
well almost got everything done...
if everything works out ill test run it at the race this weekend.
Cdi mount. used a 1 in clamp from conduit pipe, same for the seat bracket as well.
Coil mount was pretty easy, 90 degree angle iron, this is what it loks all mounted up
Got my gas tank done as well, used a 45 degree valve stem as my gas nipple. Brazed it, lol that was pretty interesting.. havent done gas in awhile

Wire/throttle housing
Also added a number plate for the drags
So this is what i was working on today. Not welded yet, good thing I had no repairs.
Got Nos?
Well finally got caught up on some jobs at work. Came in on my day off as usual y do some work on my creation!
Finally got the bottle mount and noids set up, tomorrow ill get the progressive timer, battery box set up and hopefully some of the wiring.. Looks like its going to be a bid nest LOL!
Well been out of work for the past week , tweaked my back couldn't do nothing but lie down and relax hehee!
Races are this upcoming weekend and got so much stuff to catch up to run the NOS. Went in tonight and started the wiring. So Tuff to do because everything so visible.
First started with some 20 gauge steel and made a backing for my switches.
Next drilled 4 half inch holes for my switches and purge. Also that bolt on the bottom is the relay for the NOS set up
I needed a ground for my battery and a place to ground other wires instead of putting them to the battery
First drilled a 1/2 in hole, fitted in a 10mm head nut, welded it in. Instant bung for a ground bolt. I Use this technique all the time when i need to make a mount for a bracket or other things. It still keep the strength of the tubing, which im always worried about.
well got my * up early and went in the shop to finish up the wiring. My main concern was to make it as simple and clean as possible..that means no "bird nest" haha!!
It turned out well so far, All I need to do is connect the noids, fuel pump mount and throttle switch. Its still early here so I might go back and get that done today!
enjoy
Work was slow today with the weather being pretty ugly here today, it was raining cats and dogs! So good for me bad for the shop!
Welded up a new mount for the fuel pump.
Also finally bent some steel tubing for the purge system. I cant wait to bend over and purge this haha!
Did the wiring for the Noids, finally got to test them as well! After seeing the pic i noticed i have the ground hooked up wrong. That needs to go to the timer.. oops!
Tomorrow ill set up the throttle switch, finish up wiring the fuel pump and routing the hoses. Few more things i need to figure out but i hope to get it done by thursday!
PureAloha - the biggest i ran in it was a 25. but it seems like i can go way bigger. Its all in the timer set up. I launched at 40% and was still able to control the launch. With this bike now im not to sure how its going to react. il find out this weekend. I definitely going starting out with a 15 shot to be on the safe side, make sure all the system is running correctly.
So I finally got it all done today. fired right up with no problems! Im not going to test the NOS untill i get to the track. No place safe to try it apund here.
So here is my throttle switch rig um up McGyver action lol! works really well and is very easy to adjust.
Finally got all the stuff wired and plumbed up! Just need to tuck some wires and its ready!
Aloha
