    i thought the forum members would like to see the titanium nuts,bolts and spindles my son manufactured for my recently refurbished 71,250 8 speed,if you look closely the picture of the bike has only one shock in one picture and the fork spring pretruding,as only the spindles were fitted at this stage,will upload pics when complete:applause:

    the bars are in a funny possition from having it suspended by tie straps in my workshop,they do look like something from a circus bike i will say:) but they are the origionals,i am 6 foot 2 so i guess they got to stay ,will just reposition them a little bit nearer my big belly lol, cheers

    i know its wrong , but how much do i always want to fit a longer seat on these bikes to protect the riders vitals!.... apart from the frame and h'bars i cant see a 25 lbs weight loss here.. mind you there is not a lot of fat on this or the std bike anyway

    i think your son has done a great job on the spindles and spacers, is there a big difference in weight? would love a set for my modified 74 mag 250.:love:
