Slowly, but...slowly

Got the chain on.  Best I can tell, the front sprocket needs a small spacer behind it and I machined down the splined old hub to use as the outer spacer for the nut.   Clearance issues with the rearset brackets and swingarm are TBD. 
Drew had a good idea of JB Welding up the frame tubes to make a sandable surface to make sure the seat bracket sits squarely on.  Worked a treat as you can see in the pics.


















I picked up this seat from another DIY bike builder in town, he's got a neat TT500 and an old Shovelhead.  Looks like an old Bulltaco tracker seat.
