Hi Welderman,

Damn, I wish I would have been at the workshop now, would have liked to chat more about your project! :sad:

Glad that you like your front end though, thanks for the comments :lol:

Remember to send us some pictures of it fitted so that we can put them on the web site.

Regards,

Les.

Can you guys help a foreigner out? Why does everyone use the suzuki engines? What about Honda or Kawasaki? I am going to be doing my own convertion so the engine doesnt matter. Thanks for the help.
