Will the exhaust you use be Café Racer style Like This One (http://www.motorcycles-thailand.com/harley-davidson-cafe-racer-400,000baht-ono.html) or Flat Tracker Like The XR750 (http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/1984-harley-davidson-xr-1000-sportster-6.jpg)?

exhaust will be up to the individual. i perfer the low slung type. but it must be able to cope with 40 degrees of lean:)

I love v twins and I think it takes up the frame space nicely.
Loved the look of the first pipes, Grav, as I think they would balance the whole bike....aesthetically of course :D

it's designed to do a few things a harley never was. wheelbase is 56" . 1" more than a manx norton, so it should corner well. although this one has spondon yokes,forks,pwerful brakes, etc.
but the kit is designed to accept standard sporty parts, except oil tank, even the battery box is a slightly modified standard item. we have done a sprocket conversion and the stadard box section swingarm we will supply with the kit will accept a 180 tyre on a sutiable wheel. forks can be dropped through the standard yokes as rake is 25 degrees.
