    I don't think mine is too far off from that thanks to the previous owner, I'm not even riding it currently I just feel it was too unsafe, so now I'm going back and re-doing 3/4's of it and making the best out of nothing. It'll get repainted and rewired after I receive all my parts in, and get everything mounted up and shave off what I don't need!

    My some what progress... f*** everyone who watched occ and thought they could do that. Not that I would ever want an oversized bedazzled pos

      Yeah, steveooohhh- you're going to want to re-do it with some D.O.M. tubing. Also, you have zero bracing going on behind the motor on the frame? That thing is going to break and you're going to die or get fucked up.

Pipe clamps hold on the tank, which is kindof "frisco"ed . I made the forward controls from stock steel. Those are lawn chair springs holding the kickstand. The front axle didn't fit.. so yeah thats copper pipe shimmed in. Those are protaper motocross triple clamps. The coil is inside the beer can!

          Its more solid than you think. I know, it was rushed. I'm working on an entirely new one. I rode that thing for a few months though and had nothing but fun. Actually there is a cross piece gusset under the back of the engine with braces bolting to the back . Btw the front axle is pinned, so its not going anywhere. The rest of the frame is DOM , slugged and welded up pert neer good. Learning for the next build- check my thread - doing it up more professional! I'm here for the criticism!

                        How about "LockJaw"

                        That's what you will get if you crash on it and don't have a Tetanus shot.

                        Definitely unique and cool!!!
