Works if you are running "Space Pigs".

You modelling "ape hangers" on it as well?

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

It looks like you might try increasing the angle on the triple-tree area in order for the bike to sit level.

Nice conversion so far buddy,
you might want to consider either angling down or cutting the front bars to bring the body of the bike more in level with the ground.
atm I feel it is angled too high up.

I too have done a couple of similar conversions using the DV bikes for my Legion of the Damned army.
Maybe checking them out might give you some ideas.

Let us know how the ape hangers go, I've still one more DV bike to finish converting and reckon that'd be a nice way to finish the unit off

Peace
