It's ~38" tall, and I think about 5'11" is about the max for a reasonable seat position....There's lots of foot room, so you can lay back more to create additional space.

With a helmet a bit more laid back is fine.

Allen, she's not done yet, but I have high hopes! Rich at G & L is doing a good job, and I think it will be great!

Ain't that the truth. It's down to the little things and they all seem to take longer than the big parts of the project.

Should be color sanded and buffed and back in my garage by mid to late next week. Then no excuses for not getting it on the road for this summer....Don't know where I'm going to find the time, but I have the motivation.
