J&P Bike Build And Giveaway, Part 1 - Win This Bike
15. A set of drag pipes were bolted to the motor, then Kody welded a set of exhaust mounts to the frame to support the pipes. | 
16. Next, a set of Performance Machine Contour forward controls were bolted to the frame and linked up to the Baker transmission. | 
17. Once the parts box with the controls was opened, Kody installed the Performance Machine hand controls and cables for the hydraulic lines to the clutch and brake. Then he installed PM grips on the handlebars and a 5-inch headlight to the frontend. | 
18. With the inner primary, motor, and transmission bolted in place, Kody installed the starter and worked on the Spyke charging system. | 
19. After the rear drive chain was connected to the rear wheel, the driveline was installed using a retro-ribbed cover from Robban's Speed Shop. | 
20. Wrapping up the sheetmetal, Jeff mounted a set of 3.5-gallon flat-side Fat Bob fuel tanks. |
21. Then Jeff made a few mounting bungs for the dash on the lathe. | 
22. After the mounts were welded to the backbone of the frame, Kody installed the retro dash with a Dakota Digital speedo/tach gauge face. | 
23. The last thing to top off this build was installing the solo spring seat. | 
24. OK, here is where we stopped for now. All we have left to do is a few minor things to the bike before teardown and paint. Come back next month as we finish the mock-up and start the prep for paint before we get to the feature. | | |
