I started this little project a couple years ago, but hardly had any time to work on it. Now that I have a little more time, it's coming along nicely. Most of the details are sort of coming to me as I go, like what kind of handlebars, seat, etc to use. Right now I'm picturing clubman bars, because it would require the least amount of modification to the forks and I'll probably build my own seat. I don't know if I'll be able to do rearsets because of the kickstart lever and the shape of the rear part of the frame. If all else fails, I'll start with the stock footpegs and work on rearsets once I get her running. I'm definitely open to suggestions, advice, etc.

The frame, with a homemade battery box:

and after a little cutting:

removed the side kickstand bracket:

I'm not sure what was welded here, but I filed that off too:

Here are the gas and oil tanks on the frame, just to make myself feel like I'm making some real progress:
