Nice one mate! The chain looks a little limp! Chain looks like its about 50 yrs old, apart from that the bike looks great!

The kickstand I did myself. Its really easy, just get friendly with a grinder on the stop plate for the kickstand. Its a big hunk o metal thats pretty useless. I was getting hung up in ruts with my kickstand so I just ground the piece off and now it doesnt happen anymore.
As far as the hare scramble goes, Brian(Nobrakes) is gonna be running it with me. Im gonna try and put the kawasaki in front of his KTM for you guys, but if its a lot of open areas I know the kawasaki will be behind that damn orange thing.

Hardtaco, Great pictures, thanks for posting 'em. Tell your lady "Thanks" for making the picture perfect.

Are you still able to use the kickstand in the modified location??

Ill be sure and tell her thanks for the pic, im sure she will appreciate it. As far as the kickstand goes, In no way does grinding the stop plate effect its ability to hold the bike up.

Alright,
How many other guys and gals did the "Hardtaco kickstand mod" besides me last night?????????????????

I didn't go quite as high as he did but i do like it.

That kickstand switchy thing is great if you have a 4 yr old that likes to climb on your bike, turn on the key and play w/ the buttons. If he would just leave the horn button alone[:@]

I'm still not a sure thing on the hare scramble, but I did buy some tear offs, though, so I'll be ready if I can convince the wife ... something about the kids need a father or some silly stuff like that. [&:]

Oh, thanks for making me feel good you saying you're going to "try" to finish ahead of me. The only way I'd beat you is if your chain snapped and you got two flat tires.
