Seat frame could flow better but not a bad job considering.

It's going to be interesting when you slide forward on that seat...
Shaft driven? I could use that for a Challenge drivetrain.
Here's a Kawasaki bobber for half the price. Possibly half the parts though...

My next door neighbor has one for $800. Keep the drive and sell off everything else.

I was thinking about that yesterday but I sort of assumed the shaft speed would be wrong. Does a goldwing have a "final drive" ratio similar to a car? Or is the final drive gearing in the trans?

Not as interesting as sliding backwards.
In reply to Stampie :
we dont need another project.
In reply to Robbie (Forum Supporter) :
I looked into the feasibility of a Goldwing powered tube frame locost-ish type project about a decade ago. I remember that earlier bikes were pretty low powered for anything around 1000+ lbs, and the engines for the newer bikes weren't that cheap(iirc around $2500-$3500). I think the gearing would have been fairly easy to sort out, but the details have long faded from my brain.
