Well...it's a pretty long story but this is what it is at the moment.







Narrowed a long Softail tank









BUT...I changed my mind again.

I'm going to use the stock frame



And this hard tail I picked up from Led Sled the other day when I stopped by to shoot the ****



Then pull Plain Jane's motor out of the drop seat & build from there. In the drop seat, I'll be using a spare 1200 I have from a 98. I'm going to shorten the drop seat frame by 2" (at the neck) and reconfigure the frame up front to use my 98 neck (so it'll be a Sportster instead of a "custom build") and the plan right now is to run a single down tube.
