To whom it may concern.......
I realize it has been awhile since I have posted anything, but life kind of does that to you. I have a 2008 AVL Military that I am in the process of making into a bobber.
This is my inspiration:
http://royalenfieldmoto.free.fr/Bobber/details/index.html I have shed most of the excess weight, and have a solo seat on order, but I had some more mechanical questions.
1. I am putting on a k&n air filter, and an upswept megaphone on the exhaust. If I want to keep the stock carb for now, what kind of rejetting do I need to do? ( i know this can start a long post war as to the problem with megaphones, jetting, etc. So please just give me info that can help)
2. I want to put the dunlop k70 or k81 on this bike front and rear. what is the largest width these rims can handle?
3. Anyone ever cut a chrome fender before? If so, is there a process that will help me to keep from losing the finish?
4. This is a weird one: Has anyone ever seen dual controls for one side? e.g. clutch and front brake on the same hand. The build is for my father in law who has a semi-paralyzed left arm. he cant really pull a clutch or brake lever, but he can hold on!
I know this seems like alot, but you guys have came through in the past. I really appreciate any help you can give.
Thanks in Advance,
kfthompson.
p.s. attached is the before and after for now. (after about 4 hours of work)
