I’ll try something similar… combining with this pivot idea, since I didn’t get a pivot with the basket case I’m putting together.

What’s the front end/front hub on that? I’ve been looking for something similar… a small cable-actuated front drum that fits the 650 17mm axle…

Thanks!

I followed your directiongs to make my own mid controls and I’m super happy with the results. Did you fabricate the brake pivot system? If so, where’d you get it?

I had a few questions. One, is that a g&l tail? if it is are the exhaust mounting brackets that you used to mount the mid controls in their original stock position? I am trying to get an idea of where I am going to cut the stock frame to put the hardtail on. The other question I had was what kind of brake setup is that on the front wheel? These are probably dumb questions but this is my first build.
Thanks

tires are 4.00×19 up front and a 4.50×18 in the rear if i remember correctly.

thanks for all the kind words guys. makes me feel even dumber for ever selling it.

Simple, cheap…what more do you want?!? I did something similar by reusing the passenger pegs and a piece of 1/4″ plate. Cut the plate down to a triangular shape, made sure it cleared my pipes, drilled the holes, and rebolted my exhaust with that sandwiched in between. Nothing like homebuilt mids!!!

Looks to be stock sizes 18 in the rear and 19 in front. I wonder if they are 350, 400 or 450 in rear and 325 or 400 in the front?

But then I had to change my exhaust plans.
Hmmm – I believe I must think over it.

that’s cause it is. i unfortunately had to sell it before finishing it to a local guy. hopefully he does the bike justice and finishes it right.
