Saw this today, something similar with a sporty. Doesn't look like it'd give you any ideas. Like the looks of yours way better. That is one long chain.

Never saw that one before. Cool bike!!

So I am sittin in the garage tonight trying to avoid the iron maiden....I mean my wife. I am starin at the monster and it suddenly jumps out at me that the headlight is stickin out too far. Never really noticed it before. So I grabbed the drill and the grinder and moved it back about 2 inches. Also lowered it a couple of inches. Poor mans v-rod headlight! I like it much better!!

Before





Lets bring that back a little, plenty-o-room!!



Ta Dahhhhhh



I dont know...not that noticable, but I think much better.



I think this last pick looks great. Sorta tucked in, lowered, bull doggy look.



Will post some better pics later. The more I look at it, I think it makes a big difference!!

Little spin down the road.
You can hear that dry clutch rattlin at the end.

I should be a little more "hooligan" but I dont want to wad up the bike in front of my 8 year old.......*****!!


This one was more "hooligan", but didnt need the kid to hold the camera, good old weber grill!!!
