Some advice please!

I want to make a straight shaft for a surfmaster II. Any detailed info would be great. I want to get a stainless shaft; what is the best length? Diameter? What type of connector do I need for the lower rod? .....etc. Thank you in advance!

Usually you use your stock lower shaft. Just measure your shaft diameter and search aluminum tube on the net. I do know of a company that makes a lot of strait shafts for about $75.00 complete.

Thanks Dixie...sounds like the plan. I have a friend who runs a resale shop and gets in bikes all the time, and he said he has some with the grip bars out back. That's me....Mr. Thriftypants!!
