I was wondering if the filters and such would be in the way of your knee as well. I know in my case, being a short person, I sit closer to the front of the bike, and often have my knees hugging the gas tank, so that would be an issue for me.

Yet, "whatever floats your boat" as they say. Being able to customize these bikes is great!!!! My bike is still faily stock looking, but I'm a newby and am just thrilled to be riding a bike, and loving it. I do love to watch "Amercian Chopper" on tv though - it's amazing what ideas they come up with.

Green 2000 Savage purchased in Nov. 2005. Memphis fat windshield, Willie and Max Saddlebags, jardine slash cut muffler, engine case guard, Metzler 880 ME tires, fork brace, and carb re-jetted.

I recently chopped/bobbed/moded my bike with a trailer fender, airbox removal, spring seat, etc. I found the hardest thing was re-locating the electrics. Any close-up pics of the carb and electrics?

I had drawn up sketches to do that, but never had the guts to drill into my tank... THAT is very cool!
