canned the idea .. too difficult

I'm doing the same as you now and building a fresh bike from a monster frame

916 tank will go on that

Will run my old bike with a fresh engine till it's sorted

How much modifying can you do to the sub frame?

Was reading through the regs this aft .. and I take it as as long as I used steel I can remodel the back end how I like

as long at It measured 35 cm

and I take the sub frame as anything past the last structural point

Can you not just use the yoke from an ss on the monster?

Different stems

Not quite
The subframe needs to remain standard up to 35 centremeters from the reference point, beyond that it can be modified and incorporates a bar of some form across the back between the two frame rails

Slow Progress as I'm spending more time in Qatar than the UK of late and when I have been back I've spent more time either working on engines or Dallas's DD bike than my own, as I always have the option of using last years bike at Brands

Still need to sort the footrests, Bellypan, Seat Pad and swap the forks and shock

Exhaust looks sweet Kev ... was thinking of a GP style one myself

Less than a week and I can continue my 2014 prep :)

Almost 3 weeks on and nothing has changed on my 2014 projects

So today I have finished off getting the old DD bike ready for Brands and the Van is now MOT'd and Taxed

Still a couple of weeks to try and get one of the Monsters ready for the Brands Test day
