This was a ton of work to get this all good. The 10" Kraus risers went in the mill about 10 times to get the Big Al's Cycle Low-Low Bar to fit correctly. Kraus just came out with the gauge adapter. While I'm not using them, I did not want to see a bunch of holes in the gauge mount, so I found a clean idiot light bar. Some of the pieces are obsolete. The switches on the clutch side are for separately manually turning off the headlights and rear license plate lights.

Oh yeah, THE GAP!!! This is complements of Howard's 14" shocks.
That's it for right now. I'll be posting up some pics after the exhaust is done.

I'm a little over 5 big ones, with a little more than 1 more to go for the final "Phase III" work of wheels, aluminum swingerarm, brake upgrade, and new cam. Then hopefully I'll be finished with it. We'll see, lol.

Looks Good ... It appears those Kraus Trees are increasing the "Offset" (distance of Fork Tubes to Fork Stem Centers) thus Reducing Trail
Oh, and

Just curious if you have installed the rear Sputhe stabilizer yet?
I am going to do the install on my bike this weekend which also has 14 shocks, but I am just worried after I did a mock up and noticed how tight the wire loom is between the swingarm and the bracket.
Worse case true track actually sells a bracket that drops down and is designed for bikes with taller shocks but I dont really want to go that route if I dont need to.

I have the longer bracket for the true track. It doesn't drop down. It is just longer. My 13 1/2 inch shocks make the bracket hit the swingarm almost when the bike is on the lift and no weight
