This project is already giving me a headache. I need to really see if I want to do this.

Great project! Looking forward to watching it develop!
The Kestrel by Falcon is also a great board-track inspired bike. One of my favorites.

Although I may be a little biased, since my future “big build’ is a barn fresh ‘73 Yamaha TX-XS650...

I just know it's going to take about a year to make and I don't know right now if I want to devote that much time and effort into a project right now. We will see. I'm going off to vacation tomorrow with my Wife. Maybe I'll feel different when my batteries are recharged.

cf, I love this idea, it is the natural progression for us diy type of people.
Here is a link to that Luyckx bike. That bike was a huge influence on my v-twin build and defiantly the best modern day version of a btr I have ever seen. I hope yours comes out as good as that.

Just remember to take your time. My v-twin build has been almost 9 months in the making and I'm still not done. I guess that makes her my baby in more than on way. I think Mr.B's Excalibur build took almost 2yrs. Patients pays off in the end, but I'm sure you know that.
I will be keeping an Eye on this thread.
