next thing i do is an gearshifter, v2a made, and a cover for the engineplate at the ront, and the gearmount plates are in v2a to.
the gearknob i do by myself, laser some plates of plexiglas in my company, half with a hole in the middle, other without
the plates i gum with a special plexigum and make the rough foarm with my drillingmaschine, and the rest i do by my mate on his lathe.
at next stepp i weld on the fender mount.
i brake my mind, how i can mount the fresh varnish'd fender without craks on the flansch position, well, i get my answer. we made some parts of v2a, one part are weldet on the fender, the other on the mounttube. if i do the varnish, the small peace are get no color, and between i put some rubber to have a little suspennsion, the rest are colored
the front fender i gat from another mate, comming from a harley, only cut down the holders, it fits well on the 21" wheel

Now that is the way to build a bike... What year T110 engine you got? Mine is a 1960, planning an engine rebuild this winter... I like what you have done.
