ProjectVF - October 2005
Good progress. The triple clamps and forks have been
removed for later mods. I did a series of careful measurements of
the frame and everything appears to be where it's supposed to be.

angle.
A Suzuki GSXR radiator replaces the heaver dual stock radiators. The curved design helps keep the front wheel close to the frame.
A seat was found. It's from a Honda Acura and
features deeply bolstered sides and a thin base. The base was trimmed to
suit the needs of a recumbent versus an automobile.
I built a temporary frame
extension from poplar and screwed the seat into place, giving me a better idea of the size of the
monster I'm creating.
Here's the mad scientist himself, imagining an
afternoon cruise.
