The more I keep talking, the more I keep thinking the Ural might be a better approach. if you don't want to go the Ural route, perhaps finding a rig which has already been built. its a better value proposition that building your own.
check out this ADV Rider site for hacks. they have an ongoing thread of rigs for sale that people find on craigslist and other sources. it'll give you an idea of what's out there.

It is quite likely i will end up going to the trike route with the Harley and watching for an affordable Ural.
