progress with sumo X kits !!!

Billyh79 · 04-03-2011, 06:58 PM

Here is what I have accomplished today fender is mocked up and ready for paint and I made a custom seat pan out of a L&M seat pan that is ready for covering. Now I have to tackle the about 5 small problems I have going on ! Lol... Also shown is My bike sitting lowered with ALS about 1 3/4" off the ground . As seen in the pic with seat pan there is no way the L&M seat pan will fit a sumo fender without cutting about 5" off then to make a good seal to the fender I added fiberglass so now there are no visible spaces . You can also see the old bolt holes .
