    How's the build coming Reaper? I'm with Bubba this thread needs more pics.

    BTW Reaper-Holy Smokes! :faint:
    Just an observation here,but I think you're taking the whole "inverted forks" thing to a bit of an extreme.
    Sorry Carl I couldn't resist. :lol:
    Keep up the good work,more pics please.

    Okay now we're gettin' somewhere.......

    Lookin' good so far Reaper. :rockon:

    When you get your rear tire mounted,if you could please,take some detailed pics of the clearances between the tire and swingarm,rear subframe,chainguard,brake lines,etc.
    I'd be interested to see how close those gaps are gonna be with the tire mounted,the shock removed,and the swing arm pivoted all the way up towards the subframe.

    Good Luck with your build my friend.

    Keep them pics coming! :thumbsup:

    I will do that. The it seems to have about a 1/4inch right now, could be a little more. The tire shouldnt hang over the rim due to the wide lip. Fingers crossed. If you do want to try it once I get done and the numbers are in, the adapter is yours man. thanks for everything. I got a brake light with the front turn lights for $25 on ebay in great shape.

    got the rear tire mounted. It clears everthing fine. The tightest spot is on the upper side of the swing arm it has 3.5 mm of clearance. no change when lifted all the way up or down. I havent road tested it yet but looks great . No issues on the center line. right on

    Wheel conversion pics.

    wheel clearance 1.jpg wheel clearance.jpg wheel clearance 3.jpg wheel clearance 2.jpg
    The first gap pic is the bottom and the second is the top of the swing arm. The top is tighter despite how it looks. The gap in the top is slightly bigger than 3mm. It clears fine when the wheel is pushed all the way up with the shock unhooked. I am very happy with the results and when I drive it next month Ill give it a road test review.
