Starting to Work

(bpmccauley1)
Here you can see that I've replaced the rear shocks with 3/4" steel pipe to make the bike a hardtail. I had to shape the pipe a bit in order to make it work. I've welded it on where the shocks mounted to the frame at the top and drilled holes in them to accept the bolts on the bottom where the shocks mounted. This way if I ever need to lower the swing arm to get in there and do repairs I can. Also in making it a hardtail I've lowered the rear end of the bike about 4 inches.
