This bike shit's a little tricky. Its a bit high in the rear but at least the

wheel isnt hitting the hoop

im thinking someone is saving this one

Hey man how'd you do the 180° bend?

a bit of luck really with the die  radius being the same as i needed

Also working on this 90's TQ

As its fitted with a CB900 i cant race it anywhere and the engine to have in the 90's was the gsx750 (i Want to use it for vintage and classic speedway days)

And these came in the post very close fit so new manifold to be fabed

A little more tonight ive gone with the momo shock has 3 damping settings not sure if ill need it really but momo it is.

i have other plans for 750 but sure it will fit have CB900 that would badass in there Also looks like it will fit

Havnt been spending bugger time in the shed lately and picked this kz440 yesterday for $100 as a parts bike after getting home and googled what i just brought i seen that they make for a nice cafe racer and with having gsx750 parts bike also i started just pulling shit of and changing parts over most parts from both bike seem to bolt up nicely

that wheel looked out of place now changed to gsx swing arm and work out to be tha same wheel base as the gsx750

not sure if to keep the classic look or change to mono shock from gsx

I got side tracked today and had a little fiddle fuck with the kz440

fuck now seeing that ,thats a big rear wheel

keep the 440 or put ether gsx750 or cb900?Also i cant get over lego like the part are from Suzuki to Kawasaki

These could be handy for someone building a kart

pft

i can beleave the amont of hate that has come from cutting the rail your talking like the job was done and ready for a dodgy woff,Ok i cut it off ok not the best thing to do in hindsight but not all is lost as some said it now has to be replace from the firewall now.

As for the wof guy back off! he gave me advise from the information i gave him and as most people that know me i have a lot of trouble explaning stuff

As for trying to do a dodgy job and ficking the car this was not the case here.more giving  something new ago and didnt give a fuck if i failed as the car owes me fuck all just my time

Now stoped work and looking for another body shell failing that ill part out .

just out of curiosity, does your front cut not also have 4 pieces of steel visible? or does it change closer to the firewall

yeah the 4 pieces are just localised around the crossmember area and 2 pieces the closer to the firewall

I wasn't going to reply after flyingbrick's two post's and how easy some people can call others  idiot's (thats all i im going to say about that you sir are a fuckin cunt)

i picked is car up for the wheels and tires i needed for a wof on other car with this basically being a free car and thought i would have a go at fixing yeah for sure it was a dick move not getting it bent straight first 

i beleave you guy were thinking i was just going to weld new rail right up to where i cut is is not the case i was going to use it as a datum point (tack weld)to get the rest of the front end on all nice and square the next bit would have been to fix to rail itself.

after ive cut it i see there are 4 different pieces of steel inside the rail itself and looks to be a real cunt job (gave it a go and failed) i must be a idiot

PS: not all welder's and fabricator's just make handrail's thats just being ignorant!

Consensus was to straighten it first (might not have cost too much for a pro to do so)... How do you plan to weld the front section on? And how do you know the chassis still part of the car is straight?

 

Not trying to be a dick, but you're asking for help and pointers, but ignoring what is being offered up. Repair certs are a thing due to peoples safety being at risk. People doing DIY chassis repairs with no experience or knowledge makes me cringe, a lot. The fact you're asking the questions you are tells me you shouldn't be doing the repair. That's just my 2c though.

im 100% sure the other chssis leg is i have other car and run the tape over it it all good ,(why i cut it off i dont have the tools to do so) i talked to the wof guy about what i wanted to do and how i was doing and he didnt see a problem.Sorry if this make you cringe and plan to make the best job i can with my 10 years  experience as a welder and fabricator

ok i may just keep going.

I know you guys are saying that will pull out ,but i have now way of doing so.What i have at home is  basic hand tools , tape and a welder ,No porta power etc

So i cut it off

Ill drop the crossmember tomorrow and square that cut up

Have to make sure i cut this right

Ive never done anything like this before so any help, pointers would be really helpfull

oh and this also today

Spotted this sweet rack

looks like tickets are on sale 10am on Wednesday April 1.cant see price tho i dont think that matters so much

Yep ill be going .

that rail has a crease and a rip in it would it not be best to replace? yeah car still has reg

should add that rail is also pushed up 10mm or so as well
