I think your trail will change slightly when you put your motor in the frame.

I like the curve you put in your seat. I looks good and should hold your ass when you turn the go stick.

spart. great few pages you got going on.. that sporty is a deal and a half ,good find...
you nailed with the shape of the seat it flows with the frame... as far as the trial get the engine and tranny in the frame before cutting out rockers. make temporary rockers from plywood ,is easier and quicker in case you need to try a few different lengths. when you find the proper length cut some from stainless. it polishes up like chrome... do worry about that tank thats why there bondo....
looks great ,,your on track bro!!!

nice work so far.....im learning a few things from your build before i start on my build this weekend. Ill be taking apart my donor this weekend also (1997 buell thunderbolt)....with the offset sprocket will you be adding a bearing support plate? what are your thoughts on this? its a pretty dam expensive piece wondering if its worth the money.

for me you need a bearing support for the price well worth it concidering the cost of repairs... call joe at vulcan, hes a bit of a dandy but his products are top notch

Good headsup on the damage, disassembled my EVO and did the same,  tank on the floor frame fell over on it.
