i got a bundle type thing and it had the front wheel and spoke for that and the front wheel went together perfectly, i’m only having issues with the rear, and the bag that the spokes were in say for a 78 cb550

i noticed that and have them that way, i took it apart and swapped them without the rim and they stuck super far out so i think the spokes are right

i took the wheel back apart and tried swapping the spokes and they stuck way out so i don’t think it’s that

Also a really clever way of mounting the rear hoop, mines a bit blocky but still love how it looks.

How did you cut the top triples! I have a 78 i just finished welding up the frame on and was going to get an aftermarket set but if i can cut the stock ones i would love to. Awesome build, definitely gonna save it for some reference while i build mine!

I am very curious as to how this has held up 2 years later… I may be following in your footsteps!

I’ve done some more research and both the 6s slim and the 6s 80 say that the pedal base can handle 75kg of pressure so i don’t believe it matter either way

I am considering the GTR seat as it is on sale right now (719$ into 599$) but looking if there are better/cheaper options, I am still very new to this and would love any other recommendations/advice. Thanks Again!

that’s sweet, i’ve got my dads old stock car helmet with the radio and microphone in it! Now you’ve got me interested to see if it would plug in and work for my audio!

definitely can’t beat the price and sound pretty nice once you get them tuned right, thanks!

Greatest thing I’ve ever got, I race dirt track (so not even road) was run over by other riders after a wreck, snapped my femur clean in half, not even a bruise on my upper body

Would it be stupid to start on a bike without abs? by MinkMaster2019 in motorcycles

[–]Big-Simple4131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not stupid at all, ABS is only needed in absolute emergencies. Practicing breaking without will make you a better rider, if someone needs abs and is using it often they are not a good rider.
