Ive been working on this for 3 months now. The rear frame is all custom built by me sporting a 300 rear.I used the original tank and chopped it to fit the bike. The engine has a 750 bigbore kit that was bored over for a total of 790cc. The front end is a 41mm wideglide, also the blue in the pics is tape covering some of the chrome to help prevent scratches. Im currently finishing the drive train and will post updates as i finish.

Do you have a close up pic of your tank? I like the look of it, It gives me an idea to chop mine insted of getting a sportster tank.
