More Production!

Been working to get this welder dialed in.  So I spent some time getting all my parts cut and cleaned and went to town.  Got a few consumables coming in this week and then i will really put this thing to the test...

New Welder!

I picked up a new welder this weekend and got it all wired into the garage earlier this week.  Keep on the look out for more welded parts coming!  Ive got more handlebars in the works as well as some custom exhausts!

For now a set of independent manifolds...

xs 650 Bratstyle

Had some time last weekend to get my xs ready for the season.  I wanted to change a few things up so i got rid of that little sissy bar, and made a simple bracket to mount the tail light to the fender.  Then i had to make a simple license plate bracket and made it mount to the bracket that the old sissy bar was mounted to.  I took off the rusty exhaust and used my tubing sander to sand down the welds smooth.  I revealed a few pinholes that ill have to weld up with the tig soon, but they arent through holes.

I also made a new stainless intake manifold to replace the prototype manifold i made for this bike a couple years ago.  Runs much better with this current style manifold.

Cant wait for the snow to clear and have a decent enough day to get out on this thing...

Short Shop Night

Got out in the shop and worked on the tail section of the suzuki gs 750...  Got the tail light mounted and everything in place...



Have been getting ahead on manifolds.  Got all the tooling set up, and have everything fitting like i want it to.  This ones all ready to be clocked and welded.
