Title: Capra VF 250 Update
Post by: runutz698 on July 11, 2008, 09:02:31 pm

Hey Guys just thought I would post some pictures of the montesa thus far, the only bad thing about the whole project is not being able to source a VF swing arm so I am running the early one til I get the right one when it comes up........or should I say If .....

Hey, where did you get that bike stand?  The guy at the recycling depot said mine was one of a kind, and charged me 50 cents for it!!  He's gonna get a visit this weekend!!

Be aware that H6 swingarm is just about sawn through at the pivot :o....and a fair amount of work to get it right again :P :-[.

I looked at moding a swing arm and spoke to big K about it but I thought I will use this one till the correct one pops up which I am sure it will, there was one in the UK that I missed out on and now I am kicking myself........The other thing I have is a set of Monty lever boots with the ajuster built into them but the thread is wierd so I am using afteramarket levers till I can find the proper levers to fit these really nice boots.
