wasn't sure if there was a post about it here.

Funny that it is more expensive than the xs650 ones

Probably because the 400 kit is more extensive, the 650 kit uses more of the original frame. The 400 kit uses only part of the original backbone.

I like it theres some decently looking frames on that site

i saw that kit was wondering why they used 20mm holes in back when we have 17mm right

 

[BrokenFang]

got an email from voodoo vintage they have bushings to adapt down to 17mm thought someone would like to know

 

[xschris]

Thank you.

That looks really cool. Wish I was young and had a good back!

I ordered one of these, in builder's kit form, and damn it's nice!

Question were the axle bushings included in the kit or a seperate purchase

 

[mctwisty]

They came with the kit.. I'll post pics later this evening.

The bronze guys are adapter bushings. Sorry for size -on my phone

.. and all tacked up. Not a huge fan of the lower slip fit, but it works. damn wide in the rear too, so I'll have to sort what to do about a rear wheel. I kind of wanted to get away from the mag rear anyway..

Any progress on this build?have a 400 sitting in the shed behind my shop that this would be perfect for
