I'm still curious what the issues are supposed to be that makes anything shown so "unsafe"...
Seriously.... I don't know.

The frame may fold like a laptop unless you brace it. you probably already know this. Besides, I applauded you the last time when some other people criticized you on your last project. Keep up the good work and brush off the criticism.
Still trying to figure out the wheel issue..

There is a long tread on using car rear tires on another forum I am a member of, That and excessively wide rear tires. I personally care for choppers I like to turn more than a choppper will allow. I applaude your fabrication skills, But I dont think I would ever build an inline 4 cylinder chopper myself.Watching Obama run this country is like watching a train crash in slow motion.

I can get my hands on a 72 Honda 750 four. It's all original and complete.
Originally posted by Kreylyn View PostYeah, I can see there should be some bracing at that point, but then... is the last pic of the finished bike?... Looks like still more to do.

I think he is still in the mock up stage. Now if he goes with a mono shock mounted from the swing arm to the main frame tube motocross style, that would work. My YZ 250 rode nice and smooth for the pounding I gave it. Cut off the bars hanging over the rear wheel and weld them from the main tube to the rear supports that angle back, that could be the seat bracket.

i think the tire issue is the strength of the rim in a turn as car rims don't support the car on its edges
