Forks are on. Bit more work to go yet.

I got the planetminis app and found the clamps, he also sells them on ebay I believe. They are $115 posted but come with no bolts. I can get an anodised fast50s clamp with bolts for $165. Think I'll just go the fast50s one. Thanks for the heads up though guys

Ok cheers I'll try that. Yeah you're not wrong, always found good content on planetminis. Cheers

Is it a planetminis link? They never work on my phone... What's up with that?

I was planning on buying a fast50s top clamp. That link you sent didnt work, can you send me pics or anyother link please? Thanks mate

Yeah he goes alright old Timmy! Yeah the forks were originally anodized gold but were in heaps bad condition so tim stripped the coating off them with a caustic based oven cleaner.

Few more pics of the finished clamp, custom fork bleeder bolts and the front end mocked up off the bike roughly. Enjoy.

Few progress pics of the new custom lower triple clamp Tim is making up for me. Loving it so far

Got a couple of progress pics of my forks from my mate who is doing work on them for me. He has stripped the paint and anodising off them and brought them back to a raw finish. He has replaced the oil sleals and oil. Also he has made up some custom adapters to allow the use of some dust seals...

Here is my stocker. Mods: 49cc Honda big bore kit. Red Honda plastics for added speed. Etc. etc.

Did a little bit of work on the zed yesterday and today. File finished the welds on the swingarm extension, added a tab to the swingarm to bolt a crf50 chain slider on and fabbed up a weld on bracket to bolt a Billetware crf50 chain guard on. Absolutely loving how its sitting! Enjoy.

Looks awesome!!

Cheers mate, glad you like it. Ohh awesome! I was talking to my mate and he said that we could make up some longer ones if needed but yeah your ones would be perfect! When I get the forks on and see how its going to sit, I'll work out what height adjustments I need to do in the rear, and I'll...

Cheers mate! Means a lot. Hopefully I'll have some progress pics of the triple clamp soon and when I do I'll throw them up.

Yeah pretty lucky! He does a good job too! Yeah I've never seen a zed running speed forks with the snow hog tyres so it should be pretty cool to see. They looked soooo beefy when we mocked it up. I think ill strip the forks back to bare metal too, chipped paint looks shocking on forks and the...

I wanted to do an aluminium swingarm but all the aftermarket ones are way longer than I wanted to go. I hate bikes that are too tall and long. I might turn a crf50 aluminium swingarm into a zed swingarm later down the track. We didnt move the shock mounts, so yes it has changed the angle of the...

Got some more work done on the zed. Unfortunatley this could be the last update for a few weeks but yeah its all good I guess. I took the bike to a mates place yesterday for a few mods. He machined up some 60mm press in swingarm extension plugs which I welded up on his Tig welder. Definitely...

I'll be on the Sunny coast, dont like posting exactly where I live online though haha. I'll sus out what racing is doable once I'm all settled in. I'm doing a 2" extension to the stock swingarm. I wanted to find an alloy swingarm but they are all too long for how I wanted it to sit. I might...

The new place has a bigger shed. Stoked!

Not much is happenig at the moment with the zed build, I am about to move to QLD so my shed is about to be packed up. Anyways I threw my speed forks on this arvo for a bit of a look. Hoping to have the swingarm done this weekend and leave the forks and front end parts with a mate of mine who...
