Default ironhead 77 or 79 custom build

started out like this



clutch had a problem so we took it out and change the whole thing




stripped her bare




started to mock up her tail end











then we tripped her totally bare!

and we found out that the neck wasnt aligned! i think the previous owner had a fall or something



we make a make shift jig for her just to fix her up loose the weld on the top tube to the cast iron neck and hammered the down tube a bit and used a laser to check it was straight but not perfect though but tolerable
