Here's the other side, mounted up. What do you guys think for the shifting arm, on top or on bottom? I have mine on the bottom but it's a tight fit to the kickstand.

Mounted on chassis

It would be awesome if you made them so that the kicker clears. Just for those of us that ditch the electric leg to shave weight. AC Sanctuary never run kickers on their top shelf bikes so they don't care if they clear. Both of those pics are from Nitro Racing, AC's "in-house" custom brand. At least as far as I can tell from straing at pics and picking up on random English words haha.

Those flatslides are Mikuni TMR's and I've seen them on a lot of custom Z's out of the motherland.

Problem is that relocating the pegs just ends up in the way and I'm not seeing any way around it. I see what your saying and I'm open to suggestions on how to accommodate them. :dry:
