Impressive bit of engineering, but I'd be a bit concerned about those forks. They don't appear to be any larger than stock and that setup has to apply more weight on them and it's coming from an angle, not directly above. Even the Boss Hoss has larger forks, although I do understand part of that requirement is because the additional weight is nearer the front. Personally, I wouldn't drive that rig without a heavier front end.

Just think of how many F6C 1500s you could cherry out for that time and money!   tickedoff

Or for that time and money stuff an 1800 in a fat girl! 

  Ill take a Mustang convert at this point and Sherry can drive while I gauk and take pictures.  2funny

I'm not too up on the engineering but it looks pretty good to me. DP all over it hurts the image however.
