I'm loving this thread! So similar to my current build.
How did you end up lowering the forks? Welding the shock mounts higher?

Nope didn't lower em. Just stripped the plastics off of them. I think that it looks lower to but I think it's just the stretch and or all the black in the front idk lol. But I was looking for some replacement adjustable shocks. Shortest I found that weren't outrageous in price were still a half inch longer than the stockers so They stayed still need a paint job though.

Sweet. Still looks great with no drop in the front. I guess I thought u lowered it because of your after pic earlier on this page, but now that I really look it was to show your new tire/met wheel.
Are there any advantages to running the malossi head over the stocker with the polini bore??
Thank u sir! I'm really glad to see another aero build in progress. Definitely some inspiration/motivation! I'd love to cruise but I'm sure your not in New England.
To have an idea what it would look like 1" lower in front check out my post in the pic thread in the general section.

Well the motor for my aero should be complete by the end of the week just in time for the Michigan weather to finally straighten up! Put a fresh coat of paint on my rims and new set of Michelin S1 tires. Just need to run my wiring harness, assemble the front end and fill up the disc res and she will be motor ready!
Here's the rims
And I decided to paint the center of the disc to match. Along with some chrome hardware.

Nice! Try to get a mid frame support brace from graphite for that super long engine mount and shock mount. I like your builds curtis.

I think I have the same shock, did you get it from VT cycles? It's a good heavy duty shock.
