This is a thread about my progress on my bike works.
List of Changes and pics.
First job was change the BendiT, Was wrong and i changed from a Honda Transalp (both have identical Bendit.)
After that i quit the Back Box in the rear part.
i find a triple tree from an vt600 from 1992. Has same size that mines old triple tree stock from my vt800 and im going to swap them. In middle im going to change the start contact at triple tree on top, for another place between gas tank and body frame.
im changing the exhaust too and rezising and recover the seats for a more slim aspect.
Well. a few days after and a lot of work by the way.
Some little problems swapping the triple tree with mine Vt800:
1-The axis is not same, must use the axis from mine vt800 triple tree and welded to the vt600 triple tree.ñ
2.-the wheel axis is different, Mine is 15mm and now with the cange with the vt600 triple tree my front is 1.5 cm wider.,must put a longer axis or somes spacers in the wheel axis.
3- i can use my own frontal lights, but must be adapted to the new clamps for the triple tree. (a bit of imagination and is done)

I finally get the way to recolocate my start engine and contact key under the gas tak to the frame.
Well,. few days after and many works, specially electrician, (a lot of wiring to coennect) her is the progress on bike.
I change stock triple tree from my VT800 for the triple tree from VT600 1988.
Aome minor changes in brakes rotor and caliper (only in fixations), more simple was colocate the frontal flare (cause use the bracket from triple tree from VY699, and is not equal for my bike) and new smooth air flex in bars,a recolocation of ignition and speedometer and tachometer and coennect al wires. the fron is awsome now, and is a few more higher front.
Finally for recolocate ignition switch, i used the same place for all, ring,speedo and ignition in all-in-one mod using the frame same point for it.
