Great bit on the word play 😅
Bikes coming along nicely, seems like your getting into the moving mechanics of it now to make sure it runs good, best of luck with that 😊

Only 2 now but im stubborn like that

Have you already bought your dragbars?
May be a longshot, but I think the Honda VTX used drag bars that may suit your purpose if there's used available to buy. Successor, Honda Interstate drag bars are 880mm measured to/between end of grips

I would take the engine out,  surely it would make you life so much easier all round. What is it, 6 bolts?

You wanna watch out for them wasps, i had one sting me in the eye, not very funny at the time
