Riding a sportbike\sportcruiser is more about proper conditioning. ....especially your abs and quads.

Ya, no on the moped. It it won't do 70mph and be legal to ride on the highway I don't want it.
Im building a fighter out of my katana, its going to happen and nothing will change that.
If there was a better location for the rear sets thats what I was after, if not ok. Ill weld them to the frame once the new subframe is on.
I'm going to look In to getting new handle bars that are closer to me.Last edited by Tekgnome; 12-19-2015, 04:52 AM.Tekgnomes Crazy Custom Fighter

I would leave the pegs and shifter as they are and use the passenger pegs to stretch out occasionally when needed on long trips or during rides when Arsenic isn't looking (ha, how goes it, Chris?). As Slo mentioned, the engineers knew what they were doing, the whole scheme of balance is off when you ride like that, and there is the sensation of reaching or stretching which isn't natural. I am 6'2" and the stretching out is great on long rides, but personally, it would not be a position to lock into. And if it makes you look like a douchebag, that hose can wrap around the back sprocket...:
