whats up im rob.new member here.first off i would like to give a shout out to all the amazing projects and minds on this forum.i own a 75z1 900 and have always loved kaws but the things that i have seen on here have given me new inspiration.currently my bike is set drag style i was gonna just change my mags but now i have a new vision.i want to change to suz. mags still as i already have them. i also already have an tl1000 swing arm along with the rear damper & mono shock.i dont want to use the tl1000 arm because i have a double club foot that im gonna use.im curious to know if i can mount the damper and mono shock to the double clubfoot trying to achieve the drag sport combo.i will try to post pics if i can get them to load

welcome really nice looking ride. the club foot you have may have some rigidity problems with a single shock it may want to flex out past the shock mount you would have to put on it. i'd be nervous unless you could put a bunch of extra bracing in it up top to make it more rigid.

thats what i was wondering about flexing.if i could do some bracing where would be the most important spots to brace?
