Re: Project XR..... w/pics
Okay... got all the parts in. Here's a shot of the rolling chassis. I got the motor in last night and ran it for a couple minutes. Not long enough to find out if I sealed the case well. I still need to put on brakes, chain, shifter, peg, mirror, horn... little ****. But it's mostly together and running! I'll post pics of the completed bike this weekend.
