I have never had much to do with longer then stock forks I do think 2 to 3 feet is extreme and it will not Handel worth crap I would just go with the 18 degrees of rake adapter and see how you like that..........but its your ride.B) ;)

Well I noticed some of the adapter kits are high in price. there has been some sugeestion, that some of these kits resonate good handling as opposed to a welding job.
which is cheaper to adapt the rear trike or that sporty front wheeled trike

OK just a little up date the bike runs but not worth a dam. Runs on 3 and 4 but like crap on 1 and 2 it's got good compression gas and spark I am thinking it's the carbs .I like the fab work and I am not bad at it but I am not much of a greasemonkey nun of my other projects gave me this much grief oh and I had it off the stand the other day and sat on it and the dam thing is too tall for my short ass and that's with out the seat I got the beer if some one can help me with the carbs.
