Why,yes it is. Its a mono shock off a 93 HondaCBR600F2. I didn`t use any linkages or anything,nor any geometry regarding the angle.With the extended swingarm,I could have laid it down more,but it doesn`t seem to need it. 7 preloads and 20 click damping should be enough.I set it with an inch more ground clearance than I had,cuz I`m grinding the kickstand now.No road test yet,cuz I have to find a place for all the wiring I displaced. Got some new frame rails tacked in today too.

Have not done much of anything to the bike because as you know,my wife passed away the day after I posted those last pics.But I am messing around with a new Corbin seat,from a DynaGlide and awaiting a new Speedmaster tank to play with.

Steve you are a wild man ;D Gears must start turning in your head every time you look at your bike. Your bike is like one of those transformer's I can't remember all the difference looks it had. If anything it is very entertaining ;D
Keep up the good work.
Bill

Steve, a good choice of bike for 'Bike of the Year', probably the most modded Bonnie I've seen and certainly one of a kind. A fine tribute to your hard work - well done!
