Looking good! Be careful lowering the front that far. Make sure 1) it's still stable, and 2) that there's no issue with the fork lowers hitting the bottom triple when bottomed.

Done and done, I have literally jumped up and down on that thing and there is no hitting at all, will have to find out how stable it is when I get it running later this month.

hahah just take the caps off of the fork and slowly let the front end down until the forks bottom out. Much less effort required.

LOL, I should really do that. I can't wait to ride this one, is sooooooo close to being done I can taste it; thank god for my other ninjette, it relieves the itch of actually riding something this season( even if it's just around my neighborhood.)

Been a bit quiet over here, been riding the Silver Bullet a bit( riding dirty is tough, but fun) and I've been neglecting my project a bit. This was bad, I felt bad, so I decided to hook it up and give my baby a great saddle.
Here it is, back from the upholsterers, my refurbished saddle: |

You guys might be wondering where I've been( that is my delusion, i like to dream) well, I've been busy with work and the snow was no help, having no garage sucks balls. Well the weather is picking up and the project is now on a fast approach to the finish line. I got myself a bit of a present, I think I've earned it
managed to score a Muzzy on eBay, brand new in box for less than 300 bucks!!!! I think some dealer somewhere was sitting on a massive stash of these beauties and, went they went down and liquidated the inventory, they surfaced again. It was virtually impossible to find before, now there is plenty for everyone and cheap to boot. TL;DR: I'M BACK BABY!!!!!!!!!!!! |
