Were having fun today cus were sick.....so we called in sick. While were waiting on some parts to knock at the door, were playing call of duty and were getting our asses beat, cus we dont play call of duty, we work on ambulances and customize bikes in a garage.
The offset front gear is on its way. Ran into a minor problem with the rear brake, it doesn't fit with the new rim. No big deal, the front brake fits in there so we made some modifications to it and mounted that bitch up. Just need another front brake for the....well front.

Thanks for that bd. I'm home sick to. I needed a chuckle.
ive been putting together a new hand shift. i took the hand shift foot clutch off. i had a lot better time with my old hand shift with the clutch lever on the shifter so thats what im working on right now. i just need to do a few touch ups on it and add a spring to help avoid the issue of it shaking itself into gear or shifting gears on it's own from shaking. ill add pics soon. i also got the offset front gear in today. its a .75 offset which is what i measured out to so ill need to get it on and make sure the chain is straight.
i added the springs to the hand shift last night. the new gear that came in is the right size as far as width but it isnt deep enough so im going to have to take it to a machine shop to have it machined out a little bit. i had to cut the old brake mount bracket off of the frame and will have to build a new bracket to accommodate the different brake on the rear. wont be doing anymore of that until it gets above 20 degrees consistently here.
