For this reason, a typical Sporty hardtail conversion has rear end stretch. The reason guys look like 'apes humping a football' is because they are so short. Sportsters are an entirely different animal. Perhaps comparing the specs of a swing-arm Shovel frame to a rigid Panhead frame would get you that answer you're looking for as to whether they are any shorter. I'm unsure if a typical Shovel hardtail conversion adds or removes any length in the rear. Hardtail conversions for swing arm frames attempt to mimic the dimensions/geo of those early rigid frames. 'Stock big twin' specs refers to early BT rigid frames (knuckle/pan).

WHAT rigid frame? Are you asking about a Shovelhead hardtail conversion or a Sporty? I would think they both would be slightly shorter than stock with the lack of a swingarm.maybe I'm wrong. How true do they remain to factory wheelbase? I guess I was asking more about a rigid frame. Where do you guys score big twins for decent prices? I could use an Evo and it would be mega reliable, but something about them just dont have the same soul as a Shovel. I'd like to just drop the coin and build a shovel with ratchet top, but budget is an issue. So.just how much smaller is the Sporty? I'd guess 4-5' of wheelbase. Most guys I've seen riding them look like an ape humping a football. I'm not interested in the super stretched sporty frames, I dont think they look right. Looks like I can score a complete EVO (boring) on ebay for about $1500 bucks, I've seen a few Shovels (what I prefer) for around $3k, Alternatively I can find a complete sportster for $2k locally or an engine only for $1k.Ĭonsidering the Sportsters attached tranny it becomes a more compact package, but just how much less wheel base is there in a Sporster rigid frame than a Big Twin rigid frame of the same dimension. Considering looking for a new project after I finish a buddies GS550 cafe.
