Finally retired and building my project bike
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
A very neat looking build you have there.
Be great to see pics when it's completed.👍👍👍
andy120t:
Looks very nice - great work!
Oddjob:
Nice bit of polishing on the top yoke, like the finishing touches where the bolts used to fit.

Thanks Guys.
I cut the bar mounts flush on the top yolk and then installed duralumin rivets.
I also made those little d-spacers for the clamps

I built the battery box to fit an AGM 12v 12ah battery as originally I was not going to install the starter. However, when I realised that the kickstart would not clear the rear sets, I changed my plans and installed the starter and modified the home made wiring loom. I still opted for the lower amp hour battery, believing that you could install AGM batteries on their side, as the sulphuric acid is absorbed and held in the glass mat.
The battery came with a warning label 😬 So I removed it, filled the battery with acid, gave it an initial charge, and then fitted the permanent plug caps.
It is now in the bike and there are no leaks as of yet 🤞
