Heluva slingshot effect, agree front end looks frail. Are you gonna grasshopper shock or spring it?
Prolly end up real sweet, lines look good.

I'm pretty sure thats some material he's steup for mockup purpose .. just to get some honest measurements..
Build it the way you want it ..... then learn how to ride it like you own it..

Just my opinion, I love the look of a wide assed rear tire behind the equally wide assed Honda 4's. I think the 300's, 330's and the 360's were
made for 4 cylinder transverse engines, LOL. I know most here will strongly disagree. I don't care for the looks of a wide wheel with the v-twins though,
just dosn't seem to suit? That's my story and i'm sticking to it!
Good start...keep them cards and pictures coming; Clifford! |

Dude, you gotta be one tall drink of water.... Once the tank goes on, how are you gonna see over it!?! LOL I'd have a permanent crick in my neck and a
spine that looked like Deal's Gap trying to look around the sides of that for any length of time. I'm only about 5' 10" and I know for sure I
couldn't see over the triple tree as it is. Up periscope! Aye aye captain....
Having said that, I think that bike will look tres' nice! Show up those 50 Grand show-offs, brother!!! As Paula Abdul would say on Honda Chopper Idol - "Johnny, I think you did great. You made it your own and built it from your heart. That's what choppins' all about. (clap clap clap) Seriously, it's a cool bike in the making. -Scribe |

+1 on 23tbucket. I think the wide wheel looks good with these wide engines, not so much with twins....... Not those twins, tommy!!!
If you kill a man, you're a murderer.....kill many, and you're a conquerer..... kill them all,..... YOU'RE A GOD!!

ya, the jackshaft is not in yet, getting some stuff together this weekend for it.. and the front end is going to be sprung, but still working on it. i wanted
the stretch up to be so that i could just see over it and i can.. i am about five ten, and it sits perfect. thats why i love grods frames, cuz i designed it
and was there every bend of the way to make sure it fit me the way i wanted.. will keep you guys updated.. thanx for the input.
