I have been making some plans, for this bike. I am going to use a DOHC swing arm (it is 1 inch longer), and a 16 inch Comstar wheel on the rear. I am still deciding on the front. I have a set of 6 inch over forks. I could use. With a stock spoke wheel, and duel disc breaks. This would require a lot of rake in the frame. I also have a DOHC K model front end (2 inches longer then the SOHC forks). I would need to use the stock spoke front wheel with single disc break (maybe paint/powdercoat the wheel black?) Or I could use the Comstar with only one disc. I also have a DOHC C model front end. (4 inches longer then the stock SOHC forks.) It has a 19 inch Comstar, and duel disc breaks, but the axle is mounted on the front of the forks. I am not fond of this look though.
I am also planning on Konging the frame. Maybe even adding a few inches of stretch.
