That's a special fabric. Biodegradable

Progress is progress, Lookin good

Two steps forward and one step back will still get me there I guess. Just ordered those Super 10's but am wonderin about welding them (stainless) to steel exhaust tubing. I've got some stainless wire, suppose I'll need a different shield gas?

Thanks man! I'm pretty happy with the results but there's some filler in there. I'm sure there'll be a few touches more once I get to blocking it down too.

Woa!!! Cab, bed, motor... Pretty soon... Tire melting burnouts

I've got the cab and bed back off and on the dollies but it was hard to do cuz it looked awful cool mocked up like that! I want to get my roller chassis and motor done then I'll bite the bullet and paint the sucker. The YZF is gone and I'm down to one bike in the shop - mine!

Thanks Vic! I'm pretty sure the only greasy / nasty thing I've got left in inventory is the motor. Hoping to get the block, crank and heads out for tank and magnaflux here soon! Nice job on the wiring last week!


I picked up some tubing and flat bar to build the trans cross member yesterday but when I got home the Boy had another truck tore to $hit in the shop. I helped with that circus so no project work. I'm gonna try and get out there tonight and build something!
