Awersome looking bike man. I think it would look killer fenderless, but I'm sure the outcome will be killer. Nice work!

Thanks.

It's an MC Worx frame. From the guy that builds the Frankentrikes.

Its really easy to do other than the tweaking to adjust the trail since it has a 21" wheel now. I think hardtailing a stock frame takes more work.

The only hold up is the rear brake master cylinder but I think I have that handled.

moto monkee that bike is SLICK! Much more my style than a street fighter drop tail with a ridiculous rear tire.

I'm digging the hell out of it. Been dying to work on a dropseat sportie for a year or more. If I ever get the cash...
