For cruising in town it is perfect the way it is, but in the future I plan on extending the swingarm 6" and hiding an air bag w/damper or air shocks somewhere. I can't take the abuse for much longer.
If you can tell- In the first picture I posted I had 2" springs under the seat. About 2 months ago, I replaced them with 3" springs(hardly made a difference) to try making the ride smoother.

thanks for the info.....i would love to turn my bone stock 78 kz650 into a bobber/chopper but i have no idea where to start....
I'll tell you where I started... With a pencil and paper and the stock bike torn down for reference. I ended up with almost exactly what I drew on paper.
A 650 would be sweet, because i'm always trying to gain more power for mine to keep up with bigger bikes like yours.
