What kind of exhaust is this bad boy going to get? Very cool project! amazing that your capable of all this 

[truckinduc]

2 into 1 with muffler under the engine. Actually 2 mufflers under the engine.  Im trying to keep this bike a little quieter than my others.

Also if anyone has a 999 rear axle or a rear brake caliper they are not using, I NEED IT.

rear sets...if you have bar you could even get pegs machined and knurled

also, where did you buy your Ti? Ebay? Titanium Joe?

Thanks. I just figured Id rather do buisness with someone here rather than ebay.

Im in Chattanooga TN where there are a few companys that build Ti Bicycles. I get their scrap tubing. Ive got a little plate too.

Ive got no bar big enough for footpegs, but Ill keep my eyes open. And im currently thinking about rearsets.

I went to an aviation place today and it looks as though my bike will have parts from a P 51 Mustang, as well as other Warbirds.

well I had reconstructive knee surgery the other day. that means Ill be off my feet for a few months, and I get to learn how to walk again. 

Ive been doing more design on the bike though, and im about 90% done with the design phase.

Im gonna have some aluminum suspension brackets milled that attach to the block.

Ive also decided to build an aluminum tank for the bike. Gonna have the cell foam inside to prevent fuel slosh.

all lights are gone, BUT i have the intent to make more. Price is around 300 bucks, more if you want HID.

[Mojo S2R]

Awesome thread.     Sticking around for some more.

[truckinduc]

sorry guys, ive been out for a while.

The knee isnt so good.  Left patella is still in 2 pieces. knee wont bend over 90 degrees, pops and cracks.  So ive been bummed that I cant ride a bike with rearsets. Thats why I havent done any work to the monster. 

But I did take this,

and turn it into this
