Chris, yes, I had wondered about the rear sets interfering with the rear pegs, still trying to figure that one out. Maybe I should revisit clubman bars.  ???

Julie, you have me wondering if I have the right bars now. The ones I took off are a million miles off straight or low. I need to find a way to check. When I say straight bars, I do mean literally straight, not even slight angles in there. Wonder if that may be too aggressive / Street fighter though. Not what I am going for at all.

Take your point on mock ups and not knowing until ridden, but hoping I can at least get a feel for pressure on wrists and back. I suffer with my lower back and legs due to the insane amount of miles I do a year, for a lot of years, so should be able to tell pretty quickly if it's a definite no-go. At least I can discount the howlers then and then take time to find out by riding.

All working on the heroic assumption I can get it going, of course.  ;D

Chris, yes I am worried about the frame damage too now.

Oh yea of little faith. We're not going through all this with you and Jess to not have a running bike at the end of it all.......we wouldn't let that happen  ;D ;D ;D

 ;D ;D ;D

I'm sure I'll get there. Just get the odd day when I look at it and wonder what the hell I'm doing, it's so far gone.
