Wow!!! The chrome SBP exhaust, silver engine and bare tank tie it all together and give it a kind of machine look, balanced out by the white tires and nice blue paint to soften things up I like how the exhaust follows the line of the frame. A very pleasing build, Norm.

A couple of questions: Are you able to use the stock kickstand or does the SBP exhaust running under the pedal crank interfere with it? Second, the springer fork looks great and is worth having for that alone, but how much real difference does it make with the ride? You have a really good sense of design. Beautiful...

Could you tell me about mounting the grips? Were they both 7/8 or is one 1 in. Do the orginal throttle grips come apart? What trpe of handle bars do you use?

Yep, the pipe fits right under the stock kickstand & crank. I cut this pipe real short for a lotta top end power, & I use a small 'Lucky 7' sprocket.
The Monark fork is pretty stiff, (thats what she said, hahaha) But it looks soooo kewl!!

They are standard 7/8" grips... Cut the kit grip off the throttle, & heat up the new grip to get it on.
The bars are 'middle weight' bars.

Sweet bike Norm. Let me know if u want me to make a bracket for that pipe and weld it. Just come by my work tomorrow and I will take care of it bro...
 
Great AWESOME bike. You done every thing that I intend to do except I have a oridional Manark frame and fork. Thanks for the insperation.
 
That thing is inspirational. Very nice.

Is that the heavy duty springer front end or just standard? What's the difference between the two?
 
Man... Looking good...where are you finding all those frames? Every time I find one I get crazy out-bid. The last one you did was the turning point for the misses...she saw it and said how beautiful it was.
Cheers
 
Looks good as always, Norm! From what I hear he has like 10 of these frames laying around. Picked them up for $20 each at a yard sale. The pipe looks cool but you better go slow over the speed bumps.
