I'm absolutely positive that you will NEED every minute of this build off...I know people think you're almost done...But those in the know...know that you know, that we know, you're nowhere near done..and you know that!...I could be wrong..I don't know.
 
Tried out a 700c wheel to see if it would change the negative trail, but it really didn't.

But I did notice that the stationary and springer fork legs weren't exactly parallel. Made some adjustments so they were parallel, which actually jacked up the front just a little. It reduced the negative trail from 4" to only 2".

While I was at it I decided to try @gowjobs suggestion of putting a stem between the fork plates. I also decided to try out the mega half moon cruiser bars that I took off of my ladies JetFlow.

Tested one of the chain mail grips I got from @josh_from_ga too.

I like the way you ran the stem between the triple tree . The chain grips a pretty cool also . How’s it ride with that fork ?

I like the stem like that. The top of the fork plate is a platform for some KF doodaderies! It's like a little dashboard.

I still may end up shortening the top end of the fork but who knows.
Definitely some geegaw room on the top plate. :D

I don't know the bike rides with any fork yet. :D Should be able to take it out some time this weekend though.
 
"Sick %#* bike, dude!" Are the first words I heard as I took ○〇◯ Holeshot ◯〇○ out for its first ride. Beautiful day in Savannah.

Nice! I hope it wasn't you talking to yourself...:21:

JK ! The bike does look sick. And I actually kind of like those bars on there for some reason? Might they be 'Chad-bars'?

Beautiful day here too. RaT oN bRoTheR!
