Nice builds you have there. I'd like to offer some constructive criticism if I may. There have been a number of forum members that have had the stock fenders come loose at the fender/support bracket because of vibration. Please reinforce those places, most have used a heavier L bracket from a hardware store. If you can run the motor drive chain without the slack adjuster the better. Run the slack adjuster on the pedal chain side, there have been problems with it loosening and rotating toward the spokes.

Thanks for the advice on the construction...I did build rubber mounts into the fender brackets to cut down vibration noise...with the L bracket where is it mounted on the fender ? any advice is greatly appreciated...thanks

Yes, the L bracket that comes off the brake anchor bolt from the fork. Usually the stock one is pretty thin. A nice thick one from the hardware store will let you sleep better.

Cool bikes, clean work
