Welcome Joshua, i must say that this is the first time i see this kind of seat lowering idea, is it going all the way to the rear, i mean the seat, or that frame extension behind the shocks is for fender support..?! anyway goodluck with your work i`ll be watching .....

Welcome man! The bike will look pretty cool. It has an old school chop meets new school bratstyle sort of look to it to me.....

Just wondering aloud here, what do you think a Honda CX500 custom tank would look like?
Possibly a little too wide.
