Pingu's max

[Pingu]

Had my 'max for a couple years now,bought her as a wreck and rebuilt with ZX9r front end in billet yokes,dominator lights,solid motor mounts,windowed clutch,Exactrep rearsets,laser cans,braced and notched arm with a BT1100 wheel made to fit for some nice rubber,and a tail chop.

Gratuitous shot of yokes....

 

[Pingu]

Anyway,all was well til I won this on eblag.....300/40/17 Avon...

So tear down and start again,new swingarm....

Machined a hub to take a car wheel....

And begin mocking up,engine painted,frame and arm powdercoated..

 

[Pingu]

Buell XB rear wheel with some adaptors to turn into a twin disc front wheel...

And some more mocking up.....R1 forks to go on next once I've made the yokes and extensions.

 

[SpecOps13]

Wow, Fast restart... Welcome back to the VMF...
Really came along very nicely.... Beautiful....

 

[06VMAXIMUS]

Bike is coming along nicely! I wish I had your motivation, and access to a machine shop..... you a toolmaker??

 

[Pingu]

Yeah,traditionally trained......we got CNC's but I can still do things the proper way when needed! :rofl_200:

They do come in handy for yokes and the like. Sorry,triples! Carving 3" thick billet by hand is a ballache for sure......

 

[gamorg02]

very very nice!. can't wait to see progress.

 

[Rollie]

Very nice work. Can relate to the need for change. Keep us posted on your progress. unk:

 

[dannymax]

Great project.....coming along well! unk:

 

[Redbone]

Very cool! Looking forward to seeing your progress.

 

[PATMAX]

Man, this project takes the Mod Monkey of the year award for me! Doubt there will be much to rival this in radicalness, complication and execution. Bravo P bravo

 

[Yorkie]

Oi Pingu ! Aint you finished that little job yet? Hee Hee.

 

[Pingu]

Don't you bloody start.......:rofl_200:

 

[MaxMidnight]

In that case I'll keep my trap shut as well!

 

[Pingu]

God,I can't go anywhere.....:rofl_200:

Anyhoo,some new pics....

 

[2fear]

That thing is looking mean! Nice work...

 

[CustomMax]

Looks awesome, just curious how that driveshaft is gonna work on an angle like that? :ummm:

 

[PATMAX]

Yo P, that thing is Bomb! Totally wack and off the chart. Ley us know about the driveshaft setup. You need a Maxgasser seat on there. It would be the only one on the European continent and it totally fits the theme you are creating. Private message me if you want one! Or check out www.maxgasser.com

 

[Pingu]

There's a second joint in the billet section just in front of the final drive,I'll sanp some pics when my custom shafts come back.
Patmax,love the seats but just too much cash for me dude! The whole bike stands me at ?1500 so far. No way I could've done this much if it weren't for my job!!
