Finally got some parts starting to roll in this week and I am trying to install them as they come so I can make some headway on this thing. *So far I got my master cylinders, front brake rotors, rear FOX Shocks, and misalignment spacers all from Doug. *I also got my front hubs but haven't installed the rotors to them yet as I am waiting on the front calipers. *Got the steering all sorted and the pedal boxes installed as well as the rear shocks.

Thanks for the comment dirt. *I know what you mean, parts availability up here is terrible. *Everything has to be ordered in and that takes a lot of time. *I have been at this project now for over a year and this is as far as I have come.

Well for those who have asked and those that are wondering, I finally sourced my engine today. *I picked up a 2000 Yamaha R1 for $2800 for the complete bike. *The only problem is that it is 2 provinces away and I have a bit of a wait to get it here and start tearing it down. *Here's a couple pics of the beast.

It's finally a rolling chassis. *Finally got the Douglas red labels and the Kenda tires this week and got them mounted up so I had to snap a few pics. *I also started fabbing the rear tail tank. *Dirt I am goin with a cv rear designed by Rick S and fabricated by Doug H. *I wasn't all that fond of the ag unis either.

Got a few more little bits done last night. *Got the floorpan installed, front bash plate installed, tail tank tacked and fitted, rear axles packed and installed, and the rear shocks assembled and set up.
