Hey Baz the idea of putting a Evo Sportster motor into the Slimline Featherbed is just that, have done a bit of homework when I first thought about it and having to mod the frame rails to fit it was just not on, so the 650 Manxman motor will be going into my project bike, use what I have, my Manxman project has been sitting for way too long since I bought it in boxes, but will be starting on its soon.I can't see how a Ironhead Sportster motor would be lighter than an Evo Sportster motor, cast iron vs alloy???Even a Wideline frame would have to be mod to fit an Evo motor, cutting up a perfect original Featherbed frame is just not on for me, I have both frames so will be sticking to all Norton.But it was a good idea at the time.Ashley
