Rocker C Build
Hay tree i ran a pro one internal stop and there are 2 slots on mine that are different lengths. I had to use the shorter slot so my bars wouldnt hit the tank, i dont have a tank lift due to my carlinis but with my bars turned i have a ˝" clearance on both sides. Your progress is looking good keep the pics coming bro

Did this with my last bike (with these same mini apes - see attached pics) and it was killer! Then some chick hit me 4wks later...wtf! lol
You and Hi5Jo's bikes have been a big inspiration for this one so stay tuned...
Hey JoJo. Will bend the seat tab as needed for sure Thanks.
I'm not wanting to slot the rear tank mounting hole just yet because there's not much material on there to move the tank back far enough. Also, I think it could still allow the tank to slide forward and hit the trees on fast stops (lots of weight in a full tank could mean scratched paint). But your idea is good because its essentially what I'm thinking when I say I want to lengthen the mounting tab..

Hey my man! Yea I ordered the same kit as you (so I thought) with the shorter slot on one side and it looked sweet when I tried to set it up. Except J&P got my order wrong and sent me one with cups (for a Dyna) then said they didn't have ours..pissed me off so I ordered the internal kit from HHI. It came with a specially designed lower racer that snapped off the tab way too easily (designed to stop the fork travel). They sent me another one for free but a replacement one is $65! Fits at stock tank height but problems arise when you get past 2in in the front. I gotta have 3in lift AND at least 1/2in in the rear to get the stance I'm looking for...want the tank to align more with the upper rear swing arm.

I know you want 3", but if you need to exchange your 3" for a 2" or 2.5", that's no problem, just let us know.
