I dunno life comes along, promotions and longer hours at work kids .... then one day I wake up, and I just have to build another bike and start riding again.
I am looking for a site just like this to gain knowledge, look at the builds ...loving the way the board index is laid out. I have 90% of the tools I need, mill lathe etc... just need to refresh.

Re: Fractured Lacerations - Build - I Broke my Knife!
Sorry Friend!
Got the filters done.
Welded 8 pieces together and put on rotary table. Milled the centers out and drilled for 6 bolt holes.
Milled the outer size.
Cleaned up with a air grinder.
Took a new Fram filter I have had laying around here for years.
Cut it open with grinder and razor wheel for materials.
Made the screens from it.
Welded nuts to the back of the inside rings.
Welded these rings inside the tubes.
Cut the filter material from Fram filter to shape.
It is held between two screens.
Installed on the bike.

- SELF INTRODUCTION: So,...I guess I'm a newb. Can I get my "General Smart-Ass" moniker back, or do I actually have to build something. Like a chopper for example. I am hoping to re-start a build that's been sitting in my shop for a couple years with most of the parts already acquired.
Just wanted to thank Dan and anyone else involved in getting this board up and running.
Dan is a personal friend of mine and one of the finest people I know. I have a world of respect for him, not just for his work here but also for reasons beyond this forum.
Not sure if that's 200 words, but that's my intro and I'm sticking to it.
BTW, I'm Mark. Not Indian, just a fanatic of the motorcycle brand.

Re: Fractured Lacerations - Build - I Broke my Knife!
looking awesome as usual.
I had a question about the control you made for the idle.
Seems to me, would use a screwdriver and set it once and leave it.
But I must be thinking of something else .
Looking forward to the youtube startup vid

Re: Fractured Lacerations - Build - I Broke my Knife!
It is a set it once and leave it screw.
But, on a sport bike they put it on a cable to the plastic side cover so, you do not have to remove the cover to adjust the idle.
Instead of tucking the cable away I made the bracket so the cable is functional and not a hidden after thought.
Still a few things to build before the start. I am sure ready for it too! Will be 2 inchs snow or a ice storm my luck the day I fire her up?

Re: Fractured Lacerations - Build - I Broke my Knife!
On my ninja there is 2 vents. I have been informed this is the crank case vent for this motor. So will have to screw a muffer vent in where I thread the cap.
And THANK YOU!
