Left side view. Closeup of front motor mount area, neck area and view from left rear. A lot of stretch, 10" up not sure how much forward or rake yet. I like the two front down tubes running straight up together. Sorry for the crappy pics best I could get with the low light, backround.

Thanks Roy (I think) but I'm not so sure about having too much time on my hands. It's streched 10 up, 3 out and 40 Deg. rake. I still have some misc items to aguire / make and some prep work, Maybe rolling down the road next month, I can still ride in it's current forum in the meantime.

Got the front end parts from the machinist and put it together with the wheels from my runnung XS. Unfortunatly I found out my Girder is a few inches shorter than it needs to be. Another hurdle to work around.
