Hi. I have had a 6 inch over with a 200/50/17 and a 12 inch over with a 240/45/18 it handled fine I could drag pegs I mean it was no 600 but OK.It does not go like a Moto GP bike but on the street it is OK.
They ride and cruise fine, but you will feel the difference in curves.
You will have to adjust how you ride a bit with a stretch......there's a reason fast handling bikes have short wheel bases...
I note you like to have adventures on your bike, stretching will make the bike a little less friendly to ripping it on tight back roads, it you plan on that at all.
Stretches are great for the drag strip or grudge racing in a line though....and they look cool (to some).

I think I could scrape by with 6 or 7 machines. 
No big projects in my future. Momma says we have to pay off the mortgage first. Sigh...
Does the counter sprocket auxilary shaft deal hold up OK? Interesting solution.
I assume the shock / spring must be recalibrated for the longer arm?
I follow these guys on IG. Pretty wild.

with a 240 wide tire (or more) in the rear you needs arms like arnie schwarzenegger in curves - my experiances
straight riding - ok
but smallest curve stress came up and i got wet of sweat after only 15 minute ride.
all with handlebar still original.

This may have been done, but I thought that it might be fun to share pics of old bikes you have owned. My ‘80 YZ125 (last air cooled!) and IT250 (forget the year).
