Sorry we have been off the air for so long.

We have been working, honest we have.

Plumbing begins and we needed some specialty line hangers to run the brake and fuel line along the inside face of the frame. The aftermarket left us hanging so I grabbed some aluminum and chucked it up in the mill and widdled out what we needed.

Same problem with the forward mounts under the core support. So the lathe saw some action and we made these. We will use a 3/16" Delrin isolator to get our finished height.
