Re: The Project Havoc....

Hey guys, Thanks for the compliment Richard, a person does not hear that very often so it feels mighty good. Big head, as far as i can tell, the shaft is just 1 inch DOM tubing, does not look like spring steel, that is what i can tell at least. Well i had an interesting day, first we went and got the wife a new bike helmet and gloves, gotta love that when she tells you she wants to learn how to ride your bike. When i got home there was a parcel here for me, MORE PARTS YAH. i went out to the garage after that and got some done today, finished up the rear suspension, mounted my fuel pimp and fuel filter. i then cut my new powerslot rotors to fit my axles, i am gonna get aftermarket later soo.
Anyways after that i installed my rotors and set my brake calipers on. Well guess what my rims do not fit now, i was p*ssed. i wanted to run my 15 chrome babies. so i came in the house and told the wife. she just looked at me and how can u fix it. well i told her new rims, she looked at me and said do it. I LOVE HER SO. However i let her pick them out ,after all it is hers too, so now to order.
I them went back out. and decided since i am getting new rims i have to save some money now. so i will use the old (new) headers instead od making some. However, the stupid CPP motor mounts do not work with header, DO NOT buy these. not happy with them, i had to modify, just like the SCOTTS pedal assembly, for a brake light switch. The headers are lower than i wanted and now i had to re route my exhaust, not how i wanted, but it will work, so i made up some muffler brackets for her and we are off the races.
Wow that was a keyboard full, sorry for all the reading guys, i had to vent. Anyhoo onto some pics.
