Hi Chris

Welcome to the MAKC Marlin fraternity. Its good to see a new build appear.

Good luck with your build - there are plenty of Sportster builders around who will be able to offer you help.

I'm a bit of an interloper, building a Cabrio, but the DNA of the original chassis are very similar - and I have used a BMW engine and gearbox, so there are lots of similarities.

It will be particularly nice to see you get your M54 engine up and running: with Adem Ergen's help this has moved the Marlin engine options on to a new level.

Good luck - and keep the photos coming!

We all like to take ideas from someone who comes up with a new, or better idea!!

Mike

There isn't much in them at the moment but I have a blog and a Flickr album that I promise to try and keep updated.

The Flickr album is called "blackberry marlin" for anyone searching for it.

As I said both are pretty empty at the moment but that will change.
