really not a lot of work!
it is easy to change springs or change the shock mounting on the swing arm which will change the effective spring rate
also you can reduce the trail which will make steering WAY easier. and you can change trail with a couple different swing arm pivot mounts.
dont try to do a "modified springer" front end you need the brace , tubing NOT bar, across the back of the wheel which ties the 2 sides together
the other thing i would suggest i would get away from 2 tie rods, use just one, (hot rods run just one all the time) may need to beef up the brackets, the reason i say this is they are fighting each other... i layed it out in autocad a long time ago to check.. if i recall non parallel bars is worse
hope that makes sense
