The assembling of the 85. Nothing is final on it yet. Sanding painting, trying stuff on it. Putting on better as I get it. And my 86 which I had out for a little dart today. Sure fun to stretch her legs. Bike was shipped to me from bkm and loads of parts from bkm and ceaserthethird. Installed one of the rims from Eric250r aswell today. Now a few pics.

Can't tell from the pic, but after grinding the hub the 10 inch rim fit perfectly. Caliper clears, close but clears. Only close on the fins. SAY IT AS YOU READ IT TOO!!! Thxs to Mrs. Mosh!

That '85 has come a long way Cy, and looks good. BTW I mailed the M/O tonight so it should be in the mail tomorrow. Keep up the good work.

I'm trying my best. Will have to send the P/O pics when she's done. Still need to gather a few parts. Thxs for sending the money order for me too bud. Let me know when ya find more parts. If you still have the pics of the 85 when you got it from the farm could you send them to me for a little build progress. Thxs again

Thxs. Ya the hub had to be shaved down roughly a little better than 1/8 of an inch all around. I say roughly because I done a bit and then keep going 1/16 inch each time. But it was well worth it. Now I need to slave down my other hub for the 86 when I get a tire and some rear 9 inch polished wheels.

Will there be room to route the front brake line properly (in between fork leg & rim) with that new 10" rim? It drives me nuts to see them on the outside of the fork leg.
