Fantastic job Michael. I'm still in awe of how you produce those seat units. I know you probably explained it all to me at Stafford, but in one ear and out the other  :-\

Morning Tim.... it must be an age thing(although in my case I'm blaming a bang to the head🤕😉)  as I'm sure I did tell you all about the seat umps but can't honestly remember if I did or not 🤔🤔.
Tracker ump been done for quite some time now so can crack on mainly with transplanting some gs500 forks onto the front with some nice milled up ally yokes... cheers, Michael

Just noticed Matt has very kindly posted up the photos of my tracker tank... hopefully get round to welding it up being of next week, my latest idea is to pop some suzook gsxr600 (early model) front forks in. Atta get some yokes milled up but... hey only live once eh😉🤘🏍.. thanks Matt for photo posting.
Cheers Michael

Morning all, just a quick one. I'm back on with the street tracker project (at last) just taken delivery of some front forks, not the gs500 ones I was going to use as I sold the gs and forks went with it. I also think I've found someone who can mill me up some yokes etc so hopefully the bike will start to move on again.... I'll keep you posted,....cheers, Michael

Evening all, just a quick update really. Got the petrol tank finished, complete with flush fitting filler cap and completely de-seamed it. I'm just in the process of having an ally hub cnc'd up for the front wheel, once that is back I can get front end set up and then get some new yokes cnc'd too. When I get to that stage I'll ask Matt if he'll post a couple of photos up for me.
Very hopeful of having it built in time for the October Stafford show 🤞🤞
Cheers, Michael

I can recommend an app called photo editor. A blue icon with a white camera in the middle. It has a quick and easy re sizing facility which adjusts the file size. Especially useful as the latest phones take photos with a lot of pixels!! Go on Mick, I dare ya  :P ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)
