After I got the motor in (with the help of my good friend Zack), I discovered that my top motor mount is off 5-6 mm! Bummed. Add make/find top motor mount to the list. In the photos, I have the top bolts to the mount cranked down and that's where the two bottom mount holes fall.

Pipes


Rear pipe won't fit with the hard-tail modification. Add make pipes to the list. I might be able to use the front one but while I'm at it, I might as well do a custom pair.

Set her down


I don't think I'll have to modify the kick stand. It sits pretty low in the back in this photo but I plan to run an 18" in the rear and 21" in the front. So that'll raise it up a hair. I'll probably end up lowering the front end with some Progressive drop-ins as well.

Wrangler


I got the motor back from Kirby on Friday. He owns Vee Twin High Performance Center in Ellettsville, IN and is the one who converted my 883 to a 12oo. This here is how you wrangle an Evo into a frame.
