Is it the angle of the photo or are those shocks a bit longer than normal? My Cheney has basically the same frame geometry and I'm using 345mm Arnaco shocks which is the length reccomended by Dodgy Simon.  How long are yours Marc?

Yeah I am going for the inverted shock thing, not sure there length Firko, this frame has more the same shock positions as the 74 CCM, than some other JBR frames I have seen.... I like it

If you watch some of the old timers, a lot of them rode them hanging way off the back, or sitting in the seat, guess footpeg postions have changed a lot over the years.

this is the motor that will finally go in it, just need to get it seriously assembled. Will do the Carillo rod and PMS clutch, but rest of motor will be relatively mild.
