Easy to see the similarities between the JMC frame and the Nico Bakker frames when you can see them together.

That 86 style has me smitten. Yowza

Scored a Hayabusa double braced swinging arm which is exactly what I wanted for the JMC frame, to say I very pleased indeed would definitely be an understatement

Yea Peter's an old friend, the arm came out of Busa which had Dymags in that he wanted for his own project 

[Allspeeds]

He’s had some bikes through his hands

Im sure you know, but for peace of mind it might be worth getting a laser level on that arm and in particular the slots , speaking from unfortunate experience the level of quality control that place had varied from good to, 'its friday afternoon so ill just slap this together without the jig'.

Yea, this one's not twisted and it's parallel. Last busa one I had oveled the bearing housing due to hard launching on the drag strip so I replaced the front tube on that one.
