well i built my notch so that it wouldnt lay frame..my rear end hits on the bottom of the notch just before the frame touches the ground. right now the crossmember is holding it up but im gonna either buy one or make one.. not sure yet.. but anyway once i get a different crossmember it should have the frame bout 1/2 inch off the ground or so and still have a lil clearance for the trailing arms..btw i made some 3 3/4 inch drop blocks... you have to have that to get the clearance otherwise the trailing arms will hit the frame

Truck is coming along nicely! I love that workshop.....not the biggest, but fits the style for the truck and bikes!

Have anymore pictures of your Yamaha? I have wanted a Bobber for awhile.

Very nice. Do you enhance the pictures with some kinda photoshop? or is it just the lens? I think I need a new camera. Good eye.:ito: Whats the cc of the bike? I need to build one.

coulter 03-10-2011 11:36 PM

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 
ya i do some editing in photoshop cs4 ..mostly just playing with the contrast, shadows and highlights and stuff like that.. the lens does have a lot to do with it to... the bike is a yamaha xs650
