Got a bit more work done today on the transmission tunnel. Cut and welded 4 supports, cut the pipe that was blocking the path of the driveshaft, and mounted the other halfshaft so it doesn't take up space on the shelf...
I am going to have to purchase some floor mount pedals because the stock assembly isn't going to fit in the tiny footwell. I also have to contact Tilton to figure out how the throwout bearing should be sitting in the bell housing because it doesn't seem correctly mounted. Roll bar progress should be starting on Tuesday and my heads will be finished Wednesday. Once the roll bars are made, I can finish up the frame!!!! It feels fantastic to sit in this thing with the [mostly] finished transmission tunnel. Seeing your dreams or visions become reality is the most amazing feeling in the world.
Here is what remains to be done before D-Day:
- mount the engine and transmission
- get a driveshaft made
- finish the brakes and steering
- buy/make and install a gas tank
- install the electronics
And on top of that list, here is what will need to be completed before I can officially call it done:
- create fiberglass body
- Furnish interior
- Design and install sound system/helmet communications
- Lots o' paint
- (4) Bike mufflers
- Install Lighting systems
