Truckers Monster Rebuild

[The Bearded Duc]

The milling on the fork lowers really adds to the look, great job!!

Can't wait to see more.

I love the frankenstein nature of this build

Thanks guys. Hopefully Ill be cutting out the other half of my valve cover today.

anyone else think the "buell" needs to be grinded off ? lol

very very nice work.

You have read my mind.  If I had more machine time I would make an 8 piston monoblock caliper thats stiffer and lighter. Then I would make my own fork lowers to mount the caliper so there was no adaptor piece.  THERE IS ALWAYS THE FUTURE.

I plan on making my own rear caliper though.....

Sheer skill.
That wheels/brake combo will be so much lighter than the heavy stock Brembo wheels/brakes. On top of everything else, that's an excellent upgrade.

Structrual valve cover 95% done

Hopefully later on AKA when money permits Ill upgrade the front wheel to the Magnesium version and get a light weight 999 rear wheel.

looks kinda funny. Damn, i should have milled fins into it to help dissipate heat.

I think it looks awesome. And the stock ones don't bother with fins... why should you?

yup..only if you draw some eye and a smiley...

[hadesducati848]

is it too late to redo it???

these are nice but i think some fins would help it all flow together better... but then what do i know 

[Pedro-bot]

Nice Work. 
I'm waiting to see what the front sprocket cover will look like.

The heat transfer through the aluminum to whatever you are going to bolt it to will dissipate more heat than fins could. Of course aesthetics are a different story

[truckinduc]

I 100% agree. but the subframe as a heat sink AND fins would be the ultimate.   I just smoothed out all of the harsh angles and it looks alot better in my opinion. Almost like it belongs there.
