i ment the ends of the stays they are like mine from your pic. as rick and the guys designed the original shortys that
basic eventually took on ,they must have just said keep the gussett ..or was it some other reason

harris:

i might have parts you need  dan...cant wait to see this built   :daumenhoch:

So there have not been any updates for ages because I am so busy with work but this should be finished next year sometime. I have just been given two NOS Primo stickers like the ones I have on the down tube. The Primo tires issue is still being resolved. S&M hooked me up with some new Castillo bars decals, so once I return them to their original length I'll get them powdered. Alex hooked me up big time with some Basic bars too.  :4_17_5:

That's about it so far.

I've just been offered two NOS Basic Silencer pegs, I just need to get the price down to something I can afford, so cross your fingers for that one as it's all I need parts wise. The last few things I am after are decals. I might have a line on some new frame and fork decals but haven't heard anything in weeks.

The other decals I am after are two small Fox Chrome and black head decals and a small Graveyard decal, can anyone help? I'll get picture up asap.

Dr.Robotnik:
Due to some interest lately, here's where the bike stands as of 2011-03-31....I am getting most of my old bits on, plus some whammy bars from alex (cheers mate) and some new ATI Pistol Pete grips which were my first set of grips...still need two silencer pegs (my old deals fell through) if anyone has any....I just need to build the rear wheel back up and sort the stem, sprocket and bearing cups out, but I don't even have time to ride at the moment so this has been on the back burner for at least a year....

SaMAlex:
Nice one. Those bars have never looked happier.  :daumenhoch:
