the design of a springer frontend
Well I have benn kicking around ideas on what to do on the front of the 87 shadow junkyard save and I have had some good ideas such as putting a Honda 250 rebel frontend on her it would look good and definitely slam the front down enough butt I dont know. Then I though well ill just use the front forks off -a old dirt bike I mean parts bikes are all over the place everyone has one laying around. Humm or I could just use the stock front end and just shave off all the extra mounts Polish it rebuild the seals and there I would have a stock frontend so there is my three options humm what to do?? Well I checked Around for parts bikes both rebel 250 and old Honda dirt bikes and I found a hole bunch of great stuff man I tell ya butt of course spending the cash on a parts bike was well not ok with me yet. So I checked out how much to rebuild the stock shadow forks then weight out the time I would have in machineing and polishing well it just didn't seam write because for them prices I could buy the material to build a Springer! So here we go I'm gona do it I have ben drawing and design a new mayhem Springer front end and I Cant wate to actually start fabricating this beauty and yes I'm building two of them so I can put it out on the market. I tell ya I have benn trying for a wile now to find the write time and bike to do this and the time is now and the bike is the 1987 Honda shadow junkyard save! O but dont worry the second one wont be for a shadow I'm leaving that part open still so if anyone wants one let me know what u got. Well I'm still a few weeks out but ill have some sneak peaks very soon
