Swingarm, Brakes, Forks, Wheel Spacers, Before/After pics

As much as I wish I could justify buying a TIG welder, I had to find someone to weld the shock mounts on for me. Guy builds boat towers, and he's Good!

Another friend of a friend has a metal lathe, and we spent an afternoon making these perfect spacers. 15mm axle and 20mm ID bearings.

This is the brake stay that I relocated under the swingarm.
