Thanks guys, and I know I will hear alot of negative opinions as I do with alot of the stuff I build. Not everyone has to like it or buy one but I know I like it.

Nice radio and Aaron makes some sick wheels and rotors. The quality of parts is off the charts. did you go with a 13 or his new 16" rotor?

I only went with the 13" for now. The 16 was way out of my budget for now. If I get everything else I want done before March Daytona Bike Week then maybe ill upgrade to the 16.

That's going to look pretty awesome. I don't know that I would do it myself, but it will look awesome.

I imagine you're going to have to rake the front end out a little bit, yeah?

Yes, the neck of the bike gets chopped off and raked and stretched and new tripple trees add to it.

I would say that you could pull this off in the 5000-6000 range. To do it with new lower legs, slider covers, fork tubes, handlebars, internal wiring, wiring inside the new neck, etc your more in the 7000-8000 range.

I personally am doing the following.

HHI Neck, Trees, and +2 Forks
Yaffe 10" Monkey Bars
26" Glenndyne Wheel with 13" Brake and Caliper
Vee Rubber Tire
American Suspension Bagger Legs
Arlen Ness Fork Sliders
B'Cool Aluminum Wrap Fender
New Clutch and Brake Lines
Arlen Ness Grips
Modify Fairing Bracket
