Naw, they are just temporary, hard to move around the shop without something to grab. Lol. Hope she's going to handle fairly docile, no tellin.

Wondering if theres an update on this project ?

[bonneblktrk]

Nothing. Want to get it wired to attempt to fire it up. Planning on doing something this winter. Figured you guys gave up on me. Lol. Been a long time since last post.

I have been wondering about it as well!

We are waiting with baited breath. Glad your still dropping in occasionally anyway.

You know how it is, get working on other things and rode the Blackbird a lot last summer. Moving the machine shop/ fabrication tools out of my unsuitable garage to my son's shop. Been clearing out space and have to run some 220v for the mill and welder.

Yours is a build that shouldn't be rushed. I'm pretty sure it'll come together.

[bonneblktrk]

Thanks gentlemen.

No hurry! lol

Awesome build! I love reading about the problem solving and the creative process to make all these parts work together. The swingarm is a work of genius. If you don't mind me asking, what did you do to attain these skills (fabricating)?

Thanks man. But there are many talented fabricators and mechanics on numerous motorcycle forums. A lot of the inspiration comes by having a problem that needs to be solved. I use what tools and materials I have available to me. Sort of developes as it progresses. And it's fun!

Quit being lazy and get to work!

I need more to read.......

[Behemoth]

Soo, what happened to this project, I'm super curious!

[Old Fogey]

Me too! I was priviledged to see what was more or less the starting of this bike, back in in either 2013 or 2015 (don't remember which). Awesome machining and fabrication skills. It would be a real shame if it didn't get completed.
