try mortons customs, they make racked triple trees for intruders. then you just add longer forks and there you go. if the dotn make on for the 1500 maybe just slight modifaction may be neede to work, they have them for the 800 volsuai c50 c90 etc. and maybe more call them.

No frame mod chopper kits. About $1300 complete.
Check out thier website.
Apparently they have been available in Germany for quite a while.
DOT & TUV approved.
They have springers, too if you're interested.
Edit: Sorry about the extra letter.
These kits combine both frame and tree rake to keep trail at or close to stock. This helps with the mentioned "flop".

'Chopper' is just another word used to describe a customized motorcycle. There are no set plans or kits to make your Suzuki into an 'instant chopper.' There are thousands of individual bits and pieces on the market you can use to customize your bike, but you have to provide the vision and the skills necessary to create the custom look and finish you want for your bike.
Try some of these vendors for ideas and parts to customize your ride...

No kit is available that I'm aware of. This sort of conversion goes to a custom shop. You would most likely save money by searching for a used "chopper" unless of course you are determined and have the money to have your Suzuki modified.

"Firecracker" was almost right. www.chopper-kit-usa.com
(no "s" in the word kit).
And as an LC owner myself, good luck. The steering already wants to flop when turning anywhere near full lock. I can only imagine that an extended front end will make it even worse and that's a heavy bike when it starts to go over.

Your Intruder is as close to a production chopper as they come. What do you want to do?

What you want to do is to take off and replace with 9.6'' long when you look and order check the size of spring only keep the original tub/pipe that hold the front fender
