Great choice of motorcycle for your FF project. I'm riding my Honda PCX 150 at highway speeds ~65 MPH while getting 75 MPG. I have seen some CTX riders get something similar on that bigger bike. Recumbent will make it more comfortable for long rides, but have you thought of how to deal with unexpected bumps on the road, long enough suspension travel for that. When encountering bumps on my scoot I stand up, so that I wont get my back pummeled by the shock of the bump. Thanks for sharing pictures and good luck on your project, it should be fun.
