    Welcome to the madhouse. You have some radical frame mods going on there. This has the makings of a lovely little cafe racer. Well done so far and keep us posted.

    That is a really nice mono-shock conversion. Nicely bent tubes and good welding, fabulous job. Can't wait to see the pics when you have it all painted and finished
