So I finally got tired of my garage and cleaned it out last night. Tonight I put a table in there and got the bike up on it and sitting like I want it. I'm thinking I'll go with a 4" stretch and take the neck up 2". Gonna go with a single backbone on this one too. Second pic shows a stick mocked up about how I figure the frame will go.The back wheel will be 4" further back of course....

Started on my foot peg mounts. Going to weld a grade 8 bolt in this for a stud to thread my peg onto then fishmouth it and weld it to the frame. Kinda skeptical about solid pegs so I'm just gonna tack em until I can get it down off the table and chack clearance...
