That is a lot of work to get it the way you want.

To add to what Drew said about shock angle, increasing the angle decreases the shock's leverage, so it will act softer.

Visually & functionally, you may want to extend the chain guard.

Great work, keep at it & post more pics!

'Kraz, 'was wondering how you were progressing...I like the look of the stretched *swingarm...looks good! I have a dumbass question...was going over to chain drive a formality with the swingarm stretch, or were you already running a chain?
