Got the main tubes on the forks tacked on, I also made some axle tubes out of 3/4" tubing sleeved inside of 1", than drilled and tapped with set screws.
The wheel pictured is the hub I am using for the front, it is off of a Honda XL185, I feel more confident with a motorcycle brake in the front not to mention the whole wheel with tire was $45.00, I'll use this rim and tire for mock up than lace up the other black rim I have later on. Now that the mounting points on the fork are complete I started working on the main part of the frame too. Hopefully I'll have it all tacked this week...
