Hi Rick,
The manual clutch bike is basically ready to ride. I'll offer up some impressions soon. The application required a fairly fixed adapter location with maybe an 1/8" adjustment either way. It also required a larger sprocket bolt circle and a custom offset brake reaction arm. All this combined I just set the adapter to my Bonneville standard offset which is a bit wider than the common moped standard and allows for a wider tire selection. I figure any application where the coaster brake is used should also get a front disc brake. When it comes to the front disc I can see I am slowly going to this as standard and moving away from the front drum. The bike I ride the most, my personal Sportsman 200 cruiser with bone stock engine, has discs front and rear.
