Hello!! Just a quick update on my project!! After the first try on the hills, my thoughts were that the bike should be both functional and less ugly!!! So here are some updates that I've made so far... I bought a bigger tank (17Lts) from Safari tank. Made some mods on the seat, just to get more comfort riding for all day long. I've cut some foam from it and attached a gel base. The front fairing was made by me, from a plastic advertising!!! First, I've made a paper model, just to get the picture of how it would be.. With a air heating gun, I've made it on my living room and attached it on the headlight!! This is how it is! A speedometer from TrailTech, a lighter 12V plug, a Garmin GPS mount and two switches to cut off the 12V plug or GPS, when needed. Just the basic to be "off the grid" for as long as you can!!! Replaced the swing arm and linkage bearings. Also made a tool box from a plumbing pipe! And here she is ready to race!!!! š Kind regards to all !!!!!!
