Mission creep..... yeah, that never happens to me...
Got in some practice on the mill.
After googling, used the miter saw and a 12" carbide wood trim blade to make the big angle cuts.
Like hot knife through butter!
Could stand to get thinned up.

Nice risers! And I like the look of those bars too! Are you thinking of building a feet forward cruiser?
Way cool, put 'em where you want 'em.
No. You're thin enough!
That YZF front looks damn good
Don't know what you have in mind for a fender but I found an idea for ya. Need to go back to a XJ forum.

That's kinda the stance I was looking for, for "The Basketcase". I was thinking of welding a tube between the down-tubes, to give a set of "forward controls" something to anchor to. I kinda like the idea of riding a recliner down the road, instead of having my legs all folded up under me...
No...that's just Someheimer's.

Back in the 1970's there was this bloke Royce Creasey wrote in Bike magazine about his idea - the feet forward motorcycle or FFM. Well reasoned about comfort, control, aerodynamics and so on. Mind you, some of his creations were well weird.
