I think it is issue #4 of VMX magazine that has such Huskyha conversion, theres room to burn in the frame so shouldn't be a drama.

The only comment I would make is that the motor needs to be at the correct angle to the front frame rail, they look weird if they are sitting in the frame at a funny angle.

Personally I like the TT500 motor in the RM400 N/T frame. Fits like a cock in a sock.

also try ola_martin  he just built one that looks like the real deal

trick is to get the sidecovers right. You may also want to get your forks worked out and sitting on wheels, just use a couple of bits of flat bar with holes to work out shock length. Mine are 17" to match the Fox Forx



Marc, what about some more photos.  I mean close ups.  I'm drooling!!!

Have a look on the Yamaha string I posted a few more. I have step by step assembly photos I was planning photo manual.

Just waiting for billet brake rod, clevis and a bunch of the smallest details. Oh and will fit a Daytona high port head to it.
