So with no real direction it was time to get some rod out and start see what it would say to me.

A piece here and a piece there and now it is begining to take shape. There are many pieces to make sure that you clear under the tank. Things like the auxilary rad tank, air box and electric parts etc. But after a few tries......rod on........rod off.....ha ha..... the tank began to take shape. I wanted it to go well forward and down in the front, but had to make room for the fork tubes when they are turned. A bit of tweeking and I had figured out.

As you can see here I put a bit of cardboard on to have a look at everything and check clearances etc. Also wanted to see what sort of steel panels I will have to be fabricated for each piece. They should be fun as there are many different angles and curves to make in each piece.

It is starting to get a warrior look to it now. So soon it will be on to the side panels and on back to the rear fender area. With the rise of the tank, and lowering the seating postion substancially, not only should you feel like you are sitting in it instead of on it....but it will look cool as hell as well.

Had to stick a piece on the top to get the full effect of what it is to come. Here are a few shots from the front and rear. You get the idea. Ying...Yang....

This gives you and idea of the flow from front to rear. Should look like she's built for action and ready to roll on down the road. Stay tuned for more updates as we go.

Nothing is impossible.......it just takes a little longer......
