I bent the header as much as I could with heat. It's starting to flatten, so I left it as you see it.Looks good,maybe tuck the muffler a little but I appreciate the positioning of the thing for clearence and level carb.
The handling is fine, I weigh enough that I don't notice the higher center of gravity. Wide cranks would be good but I am trying to keep costs down.A wide pedal crank will make it easier to mount your motor where it's supposed to be......I wonder how your bike handles with the engine 4 feet in the air......but all in all a very cool looking bike.....let us know how well it works....
