08 bama Ruck just got some stuff done!

[scootzilla]

I finally got around to ordering a seat frame for my ruck. Also got the mountain bike bars on and pull in the front turn signals. Going to chop up the rear tailight assembly whenever I find time again(Exam week down here right now). Still having a few cable issues with the new bars, but it rides fine(need to reroute a couple things. Let me know what you think!

In the kitchen in my tiny college apartment... on the third floor haha.









Let me know if you have any suggestions for cable rerouting. I have the rear brake cable under the tank, but still binding up a bit. Hope to do a rear wheel extension soon when I get the money

It took me three hours to tear every thing apart and re-route the cables so that they looked decent. Good luck.

Are you planning on using a cap to help hold the handle bars on?

I actually have a bolt going through the stem in the stock bar place, bu I will put something over it to cover the hole. It's solid, but I have issues when I turn to the right with the cables binding up. Nothing major, but it gets that fun creaking sound haha. The stem is just so close to the BB that there is not a lot of clearance for the cables. Thinking about trimming the right side out of the top of the battery box like the left side is where your cables run. Anyone done this... I couldn't find pictures anywhere.

I forgot to tell you, you can put the loop of extra throttle cable by the carb to clean it up. Nobody's gong to notice a little extra cable by the engine, but it looks goofy at the bars.
