Basically you have an early mount now.
Don’t have a build thread but may put one together. Here is something I’m playing with on side of battery box…… worked perfect for forward controls…..hacked up stock brake pedal, bent up brake arm, Heim joint to custom brake rod ……note TCI unit on back of box, also box on rubber mounts.Sounds very interesting.
Do you have a build thread?
I'd love to follow your mods.
Although my bike is hardtailed, I'm not really going for the chopper style.
More like a bobber I think.
Bigger beefier front forks. Twin discs.
All from the R6.
The build is called the "Punisher" so svelte probably won't cut it.
I think you should.Don’t have a build thread but may put one together.

You need the dogbone(s) to do two things....Wow..I misread or misunderstood what I was reading Jim. I need the dogbone to be LESS vertical. Hmmm. My thoughts were that horizontally it would allow the most flex. I may attempt to look at it from that viewpoint and see what a new iteration brings to light before clearing everything and continuing the stripping. I appreciate the insight.
Thanks.
Actually that's a correct statement, in that the dogbones will allow the most flex vertically if they are horizontal. I think you're missing a key part though.... you'll need rubber isolators to hold the vertical.... the engine moves up and down and is restrained by the rubbers... the dogbones are just there to prevent fore and aft movement. It'll take both to get the job done. Neither will work by itself.My thoughts were that horizontally it would allow the most flex.
