Thanks King! Mounted the tail light to the rear fender last night...probably the easiest install during the entire build and will post photos later today. Now, I can shift my focus to the stem, handlebars, and the drive train. Speaking of handlebars, I've been struggling back and forth on...

After reviewing placement of the truss rods being mounted inside of the rear drop outs, I realized that it would interfere with the flow of the chainline (once installed). As a result, the truss rods were remounted on the outside of drop outs. Also ditched the copper bell hangers because it...

I decided to flip the truss rods underneath the seat stays... also flipped the spring bumper cups upside down and at the base of the fork hoop. Added a couple of copper-plated bell hangers at the top of the spring stays. Threw some washers underneath and on top of the truss fork brackets, all...

Re-configuring the rear springs and trusses in hopes of a much cleaner, more uniformed appearance...a few kinks to iron out but like what it's evolving into so far...

Mr. Leghorn's innovative use of plant brackets on ***RustMaster***

Funny how I could see the photos on my computer but not on my phone. All of the photos on this page have been reposted (which I now see on my phone as well).

Cool :cool2: ....I'll go ahead and repost the other photos right now.

I just reposted one of the photos but wanted to make sure you guys can see it before reposting the rest.

Crazy...I'll delete and repost them & keep my fingers crossed in the meantime.

I can see them fine on my end. Are the pictures still not visible on your end?

The same treatment used for the front fender was also utilized for the rear fender. I decided to go back to this seat but keep the crash rail...just wanted to see what it looks like mounted to the post on the frame. I like the fact that the contours of the seat flow better with the frame and...

Mounted the rear springs and trusses onto the seatpost...not necessarily simple, clean, or a thing of beauty but works for me for the time being... Here's what she currently looks like. I don't the saddles that I have now will work with length of the frame, and thus I'm leaning towards...

I couldn't agree more! Updates: Good ol' fashioned backyard engineering....used tabs from a different set of fenders, mounted them underneath this fender, drilled a couple of holes on the edge of the fender, which allowed the rod to pass through and enabled for tightening of the rod...

When you mentioned the name of the build you're referring to, I had to look it up. It's the first time I've laid eyes on it...amazing execution and an awesome build!

Thanks!

Kingfish...good to hear from you and looking forward to watching you build another masterpiece :praise:! Unfortunately, I've had to put in some crazy hours at my job over the past several months and won't be able to join the fun this year :(. Hopefully, I'll be able to assert my presence in...

I have been checking out all of the BO9 builds from afar and have come away awestruck by the talent and creativity involved in this year's field. It has inspired me to quietly resume with finishing Silent Assassin. In terms of minor updates, the headlight shell has been mounted to the front...

I'm diggin' the grille tank...definitely gives the frame way more pop and a mean streak.

It's been over a month since my last post. Some unexpected developments have occurred. First, my fiancé (at the time) and I are currently in the process of moving with the possibility or relocating to another state. Last but certainly not least, my fiancé is no longer my fiancé. It's because...
