i've been trying to move forward on this but we all know how that goes.
Image
Image
so i'm at bill hollands shop and he has a gun site lazer, you screw this into the barrel to adjust your sites or in this case into the lower tree to center the stem.
Image
Image
i don't trust my welding so i had bill do it for me.
Image
i'm going to take my frame over to bill to weld up my neck next week. stay tooned.

since i changed the stem 6 degrees i needed to modify the top clamp to get it to work. so i cut it like this then i clamped and bolted everything down and welded it up. taking the frame to bills tomorrow to get it welded.

Nice!

You may want to stress relive the welds by heating evenly and cooling slowly?????

But that looks like some great fab work!

You can not even tell it was welded!!
