First 50 miles on . All is well and noticable more power , noticable smoother shifting . The carb will have to tweaked no doubt . The forks are way too soft for my 200 lb body . Rear shock is ok, but really need to get stiffer springs in front. Also when no weight on front end the second it comes off ground there is a clunk from tubes hitting end of travel . Not cool.
But all in all for $1500 it's pretty impressive . Thinking most of running chassis is early 80's Honda . But just a guess after a bit more time with it . Also it looks like both brake calipers are replaceable by 2nd generation KLR 650 oddly enough. And yes I am gionna try as they are large Pistons aka more stopping power . I love to wrench on bikes as I been doing this for last 40 plus years. Here's pix after dirt road ride today . We have too much snow and ice yet to hit the trails .

Not sure, you may want to verify. I think the speedometer has a mph overlay to make the dial indicator more or less accurate (). Meanwhile, the Odometer gear is still calculating kph.
Get rid of it asap, best mod you can do. The mjstef digital cluster is accurate, fast easy install and truly plug and play. Around $100.

Member mjstef sells a digital cluster. One of the Motocheez videos shows him installing it.

65 miles and I have developed a clunk while hitting the smallest bumps . A quick look lead to neck bearings are loose . Will fix Thursday .
