the speedo is not a problem old school look. a tach is all i need for this one head light , tail light and the tach. i have a friend that is a tool and die. by the way do you have any pics. of your set-up that i could see.

thanks eric
really the cb is a little twin. and i like the look of the drum
brake and i really dont plan on ridding hard like the sport bike guys. would like to prove that it could do a ton and look good too.
johnny did you do the ventting on the drum? and do you do it for others?

thanks eric
