    THANKS FOR ALL THE HINTS AND ADVICE GUYS, STILL CONSIDERING MY OPTION

    I thought all turns Harleys did were slow not just the sharp ones
    "If you can make black marks on a straight from the time you turn out of a corner until the braking point of the next turn, then you have enough power."

    buy an old lathe and start machining bits up for yourself

    I did that a few years ago and have never looked back, makes life so much easier being able to make things fit in a better engineered fashion
