Huskymito! Or Mitovarna

Here are some pics of the mito-husky project.  Pieceing it together via parts off of eBay, but some fabircation work is also underway.  In the process of building a rear subframe out of 4130, and in such a way that it is stout enough to be used as an exhaust mount as well.  Also want to hang the battery and electical off the back end, under the seat hump.
Tank is tailor-made to fit the head of a big single underneath it. 

Parts of the subframe only tacked of yet.  Need to play with the tank angle somewhat as well.  Might set it where it looks right, and then add spacers underneath if required.  Been taking it slowly, as there is no rush at this point.  Have decided to sleeve the engine case, rather than bore out the swingarm pivots.  That way I can use as much stock mito stuff as I can.
