tt500 build : part 7

Just to make my build that much more complicated and tight on budget, I decided to switch up the front end once more. This time I am using tx750 forks and axle with an xs650 front wheel and rotor. Unfortunately the xs650 caliper I got won't fit the fork legs I have, so I will have to adapt something to work or find one that fits the same fork lug pattern. Luckily the forks for the tx750 and tt500 are 36mm sharing the same axle width. In other words it's all bolt in.













It's not quite there yet, but all the parts so far for this swap total less than $100 due to some amazing deals. Thanks for the wheel, tire, caliper, and rotor Daniel, you really bent over backwards on this one!
