It would appear your a better bike builder than a photographer. Welcome and nice work. Speed costs money. If I were building an H1 i would paint LC into the picture. I have ridden with his bike and have ridden a bike he had major build influence in. All I can say is wow is his bike fast and 75 I rode..... I was quite envious of how perfect Neds 75 h1 performs. . . .

Hi Randy, good to see you are on the board! Your pics are a bit small to see, I'll post one you sent me through email, it is a beauty! I'll be honest, I didn't think I'd ever like a brown triple but with the yellow rims, it looks awesome!

Yes biker Dan my photography is no hell lol. As for my 500 I'm hoping to order carbs next week and then will contact Andrew about pipes,. Being a triple lover I started this project four years ago. Rebuilt crank shaft with new weisco pistons 61.5mm bore, matched all cylinder liners for a better flow, shimmed the tranny for better engagement. I'm using gsxr rims, forks and swing arm . Just about every part of the chassis has been sand blasted and powder coated. I have also machined the cylinders to reduce negative deck height. The squish band is set at .035 clearance.I have decided to go with dual shocks to keep that vintage appearance. Looking at new shocks ,perhaps hagen? Still using the stock ignition system. Any suggestions for the best upgrade is welcomed? Never been so excited about firing this baby up. Thanks everyone for your help much appreciated stay tuned,

Thanks Johnny. Yes I have machined the heads . I like the look but not sure how much this will effect the cooling of the cylinders.

Finally have my carbs mounted . I set my float height at 24mm and have mounted my rear sprocket and chain. My next purchase will be new or used rear shocks, instrument cluster and pipes. Thanks to lc and Fred for your continued support. Can't wait to hear from Andrew for pipes. Hope I can fire this machine up before the snow flies.

I machined the carb adapters from .500 thick aluminum stock. Matched all three intakes for a smooth flow. Started this build three years ago. I'm having lots of fun with this build but I am also running into some unforsene problems. It all takes time ,patience and plenty of advice. As they say if at first you don't succeed ,try again.
