Another great build -I'm looking forward to the finished bike - if any of our bikes are ever truly finished !!

 

Clutch and rear shocks got done today. Forgot to get pics of the shock install, was too damn humid and hot. After I put the screamin eagle clutch kit in, it hooks a lot better now and shifts great, but my engagement point changed a lot. It's farther away from the lever now, almost all the way out. The heavy duty clutch spring isn't required with the kit, is it? I left stock in because I liked the pull.

Anyway, here's pics.

 

Took the screamin eagle discs out and put stock back in. Turns out that wasn't my problem. Still searching! Front wheel is on, took it for a test ride and down came the torrential downpour! So Good news is it got washed, bad news is I took 2 showers today! Once that clears up and I can clean it up nice nice I'll get some after pics. Will probably do the front monotubes next week or so. I will add that the 23" wheel made it turn like a bear. Straight line stability however has never been better. Stay tuned!

 

looking good

 

Oh.. I did notice that for about 20 miles the floating front rotor I put on would chatter and squeak when I was coming to a stop. That went away after right until I pulled into my driveway soaking wet. Normal for that? I've never had a floating rotor before, but I have heard drilled/slotted car rotors do it all the time.

Edit: front forks will be delayed. Montotubes that were delivered were stock height. Sending those back for lowered ones. Bike sits too high with the 23 up front.

 

All done except the front lowering mono tube drop ins.

 

Looking good. You going to get a matching rear wheel?

 

Absolutely sick man, good job.

 

Rear wheel will come after my bank has some time to breathe lol. I need to buy raked trees to fix the issue of only wanting to go straight now first

 

Nice !!
