Agree, my only concern would be that those forks weren't meant to take side force like that and id really wonder how long they'd last

Those dont look like stock forks, a little too long, and it almost looks like he just slammed the rear suspension and changed the angle the engine and frame sits so that the forks are stretched way out

I don't think there is rear suspension. With how close the rear tire is to the "subframe" unladen and the dropseat taking up the space where a shock would normally go I'm guessing he turned it in to a "hardtail" and the swingarm no longer pivots. How would you like a 180 or 190/55 being the only thing absorbing bumps?
