I agree take the Softail, Dave Barr did it on a 72 HD, But on early softtails you have to drop the hole swing arm to change belts something to think about. I know you can convert a sporty back to chain not sure about your bike a masterlink is a alot easyer fix. Thinking of doing a RTW myself and useing a 883 Sportster you can pick them up cheap(more so now that the new one's are rubber mount)good mpg and anuff hp to get by and at 485lb a little easyer to handle on a trail. Will good luck keep us posted on how it go's
