think i payed £10 for the swinger abd £60 for the frame, UK money, the £10 is about $18 to you but nothing that i would pay £10 for would cos as much as $18 over your way,


i had the hubs converted to Z400 cos its the honda bolt patern and gives more options for wheels, i originaly had carbon fiber in mind but got a little side tracked,

the rears are no problem cos there the same spline, 26 i think, the front took a little more work, and theres a chance i may just get complete z400 stub axles cos the hubs had to spaced and the quad sits to wide now, a complete z400 front end might narow it down an inch or 4 hopefuly,

yeah the wider the better as far as im concerned, but unfortunatly UK race regs state a maximum width of 50 inches and its sitting at 54 at the mo and thats likely to strech a bit when i get it lowered properly,

should be ridable in a couple of weeks[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
