Ooh, definite chick magnet! What do you plan to do for a fuel tank?

 Rocketboy, That is one cool looking roid Dude!  I see you have used I-beam for the frame. With a small chunk under the long fram. Are you going to use wood under the frame? I was wondering if you would have more vibration with the wood only supporting the end pices?  Loren

Whats the theory behind mounting the fuel filter down on the frame?  It looks good though.

Also, which brand is this?  I notice it has the oil pump so it must have plain bearings?

Hi,

It's an oil filter (napa) added on by me and it has TRB's.

Fuel tank to go....

radiator is from a 1980 Honda goldwing GL-1000.... also to be installed!

I tried to add many more pictures but coppermine has a pathetic 1 MB limit so I gave up...

Looks great. I have been thinking about giving up on my Lister project. I will never be able to make mine that nice. Just too much work :)

Nice!  I'm curious why you put the ST on the crankcase door side of the engine.

Jim--
You're looking at the dipstick side.  The inspection cover is where it's supposed to be.

Rocket Boy,
That looks great, with very nice attention to detail. Almost looks too nice to run and get all greasy. 
Good job.
