That is some nice work. What is the seat height now with all that ground clearance?

There was a bike on craigslist a month ago. Was a Yamaha vtwin 800cc and this guy had done a lot to it. Looked to be very capable off road and on but it was like an '87 or so. Been down that road with my '86Honda XL600 and not finding parts. I vowed never again for a bike I wanted to ride all the time.

Now this is another animal. Harley parts everywhere plus ITS A HARLEY!

i would like to know specs like weight, seat height etc when you get them. Well done

That literally looks like someone did a nice job of cramming a sportster engine into a dual sport frame. Nothing out there will sound as nice as these dual sportsters.

Wow thats pretty tall, for me anyway. One reason I ended up walking away from the DS bikes I was originally looking at. Being vertically challenged doesthat for ya. Odd thing, was the Yamaha I mentioned, the guy posted specs with seat height of 30" yet had 7" ground clearance. Would like to have seen that bike in person, but was a couple hundred miles north of me.

Yea I bet. Big change from a street sporty. For me personally, I would have gone with a 2-1 with upswept pipe, but that is a personal thing. I have always liked the 2-1 since HD came out with the roadster.

With my planned saddlebags, I don't think it would look quite the same, sadly.
