I got my parts back from my brother and I am starting to put the bike back together. Here are a few shots of what is to come. BTW, I couldn't have done the single seat without Roy's help. Thx

Here is a better pic of the bike with the single seat. I even took it around the block for the first time in a while. I will have to get a temp tag and get it registered again. It is pausing around 4500-5000, but takes off good after that. I think it is because it sat too long. It needs to be ridden and opened up.

It is off a 1785 Idontknow. I found it in a mini junk yard and knew that was exactly what I was looking for. I made a custom bracket for it as well. |

The Idontknow was only made one year right? Very rare! |

My buddies ducati has a trick tailpiece that fits over the rear half of the seat and gives a single seat look, but can be removed for the bitch seat. It's a sweet setup. It would be nice to make something like that. |

I finally got a temp tag for the bike and took it out for a quick ride today. I would've loved to have ridden further, but it is so hot and humid right now. It did pretty good overall. I had it stall on me a few times while trying to accelerate from a light. It felt nice taking it out for a spin. Also compared to my Bandit, it feels like a tank in the steering department. |
