Making a GIRDER (Not Springer) Front End From Scratch | Part 2 | LEGS!

This is my first series following the work I do everyday in my shop at One-Up Moto Garage. In this video I cover the fabrication of the legs of this from-scratch GIRDER front end. I'm building it to suit a Honda Shadow VLX600 frame (for now- custom built frame to come) with a Honda NT650 Hawk engine. It also has a VFR800 custom Kineo wheel mounted to the Hawk's single sided swing arm. Subscribe to follow this build as I go!
