Yeah, funny to see the arguing back and forth. The internet reminds me of a parking lot sometimes. Otherwise intelligent people get there, and forget how to drive. I'm on the home stretch now. Should have my tracker done in a few days. It's been a fun project. I'll post the pics as soon as I have it 100%.

Not everyone has the ability to make a wild one-off custom. This guy put together a respectable bike, using off the shelf parts. A Askland built 750 would be a worthless streetbike, for the 5 hours it ran before coming apart. Those old bikes were fast, I am sure, but riding the razors edge of reliabilty. Nice bike. I suspect the guy commenting is not real anyway, and just looking to start a fire. Fun times!

Right about what? The guy's getting flamed for not reproducing a 100% copy of a race bike to ride on the street. As far as cookie cutter goes, leaving one stock is as cookie cutter as it gets.
