Me too, still have not even started it. You wanna drive it? 95HP single cylinder 2 stroke ought to pull like nobodys business!
Hey Fully, here is the instructions that is for my conversion kit. Hope it helps...
Honda FL350 Bolt-on A-arm Kit
STEP 1. Remove the old J-arms, shocks, and front brake lines. Remove the front brake lines all the way to the master cylinder. Remove the tie rods from the steering flag. Save the two triangular shaped j-arm support plates and nuts for re-installation.
STEP 2. Drill out the holes in the steering flag using a 7/16” drill bit. Use the supplied 7/16”x3 ½” bolt and nylock nut to hold the 7/16” heim joints to the flag. Mount the heim joints exactly as shown in picture #1, with one heim joint above the flag, just under the bolt head. And the other just under the top part of flag. Use the 1- 3/16” chromolly bushing below the lower heim joint inside the flag. This will keep the lower heim joint up high in the flag. The objective is to mount the heim joints as high as possible in the flag. You will need to notch the steering column bottom support bracket to allow clearance for the bolt head. (see picture #2) There should be clearance already, but notch it anyways, in order to prevent steering lock-up due to too much play in the shaft when pulled up.
STEP 3. Mount the sub-frame halves to the frame using the stock triangular support brackets and nuts. Clamp the back end of the sub-fram half using the clam shell clamp. You may need to remove a cable tab in order to clamp it. Make any adjustment needed to fit your frame. Weld fully. (If you purchased the tack welded kit)
STEP 4. Install the A-arms, spindles, brakes, shocks, etc.. Upper shock brackets are intentionally left wider to allow for various shock mounting widths. Use spacers between shocks and brackets as needed.
STEP 5. Install the short braided brake line to the master cylinder using the adapter fitting provided with the brake line kit. Drill a hole in the front tab to support the “T” fitting. (see picture #3) Then attach the short brake line to “T” fitting. Attach the two longer brake lines to the “T” fitting. The other ends need to be attached to the calipers. Route the brake lines so there is no binding when turning. Support the brake lines to the upper a-arms using cable clamps or brake line clamps.
STEP 6. Attach the two inner drag lengths (10 ¼”) to the flag. Each drag length is threaded with both left hand and right hand threads to allow for adjustment when mounted. Mount the two tie rods (11 ¾”) to the steering pivot arms. (see picture #5) The inner drag lengths should be on the bottom at the steering pivot arms. The two tie rods going out to the spindles should be on the top in the steering pivot arms. Drill out the spindles with a 7/16” drill bit. Mount the heim joints on the bottom of the spindle, with the bolt head on the bottom. Use the spacer betweem the bolt head and heim joint. Use the nylock nut on the top of spindle. Adjust the inner tie rods to 12 5/8” eye to eye. Adjust the tie rods to 13 7/8” eye to eye. Tighten all jam nuts on heim joints. With the steering yoke straight, align the front tires.
