wouldn't your dj1 be spewing oil after about 3 grinds on that thing? the soft aluminum/magnesium of a fork lower really sucks for grinds, no?

true i see what your saying i've personally never had any problems with it as i tend to grind just on the peg i have a few marks on the lowers but nothing to bad all you'd need is a small plate welded to the bottom of the peg as u can do it up from the other side so no need to spin the peg

I wish I'd taken pics of the parts I made...but I didn't. I've made

-Locks for lock on grips
-Bar ends
-9mm hub to 20mm fork adapter (that was flexy as shit, don't waste your time.
-Shock bushings/pivot pins

I think there's more, but it's escaping me at the moment. I do have a pic of my chopper though.
