Can Routy's forward controls be installed, and work the same with these frames?
Also, do these frames come painted?
I assume everything else just switches over from the stock frame, right?
I'm not sure how much further back (or forward) the seat sits from stock position because this is not a stock frame. The ride profile is still very comfortable and for larger guys, a more substantial shock (or air bag) can be used.
We do not offer the frame fully painted because their is still minor fabrication work to be done by the customer. We simply provide a base "canvas" for you to create your own style. Bare in mind... The engine and front forks will just BOLT-RIGHT-UP, but everything else is up to you!
Because the original engine mount locations are used in our design, any forwards (including the stock controls) can be used with proper 3/8" spacers.
With exception to the seat, this is what the SHORT-CHOP frame with all STOCK components looks like fully assembled...
