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.

i'm thinking on top. only because i have seen guys including myself have to grind the kickstand boss for clearance, when u use the lower location.the linkage can hit the side stand too.

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:

Those are so pretty it brought a tear to my eye. What's it going to cost us to have a set of these beauties?

Looking like around $200, I'll know more after I get all the little details lined out. I want to ship them with all hardware, heims joints, bolts, nuts, locktite, you get the picture. Right now it's the shifter link on the motor that's a pain. Trying to find a suitable donor to use.
Here's the shifter side.
