Default jj&a gun drilled drag axle installed (wow)

For you hard core drag racers, I installed a sweet alum. gun drilled axle on my future 840 frame. This thing is a work of art and bullet proof. I had Southern Style Racing from Denham Springs La. build the swingarm to fit the ds up front and swap sides with the chain drive and brakes so that the shee axle would work. Install was flawless. Rotating mass will be a minimum on this baby with the shee ultra lite wheels also!!!! Bike is pic 15 If parts like this needed pm me for #s

I've seen that on an ultra-light 400EX that was somkin' fast!

Marvin Shaw Shocks
Special 3-stud front spindles (or were the tires held on from the center bolt without any studs??)

Are you going to make DS Day's in 2005? Would like to see this thing run.

Eric made spindles to fit my shee ultra lite fronts. I should be at DSdays this year for sure. No 4stroke wars this time without my 840 complete. I want it to be killer so no hurry here[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] All the hubs are on keyways so they are adjustable to line up chain.

Nice job Sandbomber, pic's #15 & 16 are looking SWEET! That swing arm is very nice! It should be a runner for sure.

sandbomber -- nice picts.

so, whats the deal with the narrow axles. Are they just about loosing rotating mass, or do they have some other hidden charma message I'm missing?

You are correct about the mass and also helps with tracking (keeping it between the cones or rails)

Nice work on the drag frame. What are you looking at for HP and 300ft times?

Sweet sweet rig you have in the works there! Any idea of the final weight your looking at? With a project like that I would guess a aluminum frame or CHMLY frame could have been made possibly?
