Crossing an SMT with an Adventure

[Yascher]

21" clearance was the firs thing that sting my eye on this short wheel base bike from the picture. Did you try to take the springs out from forks and see if it will clear radiator with ability to turn the bars as well?
must be a wheelie monster with this shortened rear)))))))

Great looking bike

A 116HP - 200Kg Beast,

Started with a 2010 990 SMT



And ended with,

This bike looks great but what was done with the nose? It looks like the stock smt has a lower portion of the nose right? Did you trim the nose or? I would lilke to make a set up like this but MUST run the high fender like a se, but I am afraid the high fender cannot clear the nose on the smt, thoughts?
