I did my intro back in 2015 shortly after I got started on the bike and now its finally finished with most of the bugs worked out. Here's some photos:

I used this forum a lot for all kinds of stuff, specially cause this bikes built out of parts from a bunch of different years, so thank you!

Is that a Norton brake on the front?

Its a Yamaha I think, some Japanese wheel.

Love where you put your mirror. Very differant

Thanks, it's not the most effective spot but it's sufficient.

I'm glad you guys like the bike, without this site I wouldn't have been able to build it, so thanks to everyone on here!

I like that you did not hide you rewelded the handlebar…..

It’s especially gutsy with how pretty I weld.

 

[hispeed87]

Are you a certified welder ? Or just steady at hand?

I was implying my welds are not pretty... safe but not pretty.

That should be rules compliant!

Nice !

The seat looks way to good to be an off the shelf item. Care to elaborate on that ?
Also, what year is the frame ? I ask due to seeing the linkert tab under the tank yet its not a drop seat pan frame. I have no idea how long linkerts were used.

Frames a ‘69
The seat is custom. I made a seat pan, molded some carpet foam to shape and had it covered. The guy who covered it added some soft foam to the top. It bolts through the seat tube and has a pin in the fender to keep it from swiveling.
