Understood! thank you for the clarification.
I don't dislike the SpeedHut alternative; it is more a matter of keeping the bike the way it was then. I am eager to have a working Odometer.
Sorry, if I wasn't clear. Joel fixed my speedo and it's still working. That's opposed to buying new gauge for about the same money, such as Speedhut, which understand work quite well too.
I guess I wasn't clear. Joel does good work. That's why I've recommended here years ago.
This is way beyond a Scura build. This is a custom bike. Can't wait to see how it all comes together.
Does the MGS triple-tree fit the V11 Spine frame without modification?
I wasn’t even looking for a wheel. Joe Caruso asked me to buy him a Ducati 750 wheel from eBay because the seller wouldn’t deal with international types.
So when I bought his wheel, eBay has those “recommended for you” things and boom there was this rear wheel for less then half what they go for.
In a moment of blood lust I’m stabbing the “buy it now” button
Those gears are coming from the U.K. Joe Caruso has them made and they are steel.
