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 (
![]() 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 .
