Well ill start off by saying hello and that I'm new to this forum but i thought i would share my project with you guys and would like to hear some suggestions. I started this project about 3 months ago with the bike as it sits ( with me on it) from the picture. well i thought i was to big for it so that's where the project comes in. Get my tall body on the bike and not look like a bear riding a moped. so this is what i have so far and will keep posting my build. would like to hear back and suggestions are very welcome since I'm new a this I'm kinda just rolling with no past experience Attachments:

the new rear. 6 1/2 streach and 3 inch seat drop. I bent all the pipe and hand cut the extention plate. then drilled out the holes with some pretty huge drill bits. Attachments:

Most aren't into custom frames like that here bro... I think you may experience a bit of flex on that plate... in the pics it looks like the two pieces of tubing that form your seat pan come together on that single vertical plate you drilled the holes in. That is definitely gonna flex like a fish swimming through water in my opinion. Looks like you need to add gussets at the back wheel too bro... I know you're not done... but you did ask for feedback.
