the bike sounds sweet...
I think that you should forget the frame bracing with the stock frame, and just have a chromoly one as standard. They are not much, and the "bang for the buck" even if you have to add a couple hundred bucks to the price tag would be worth it for the higher quality bike (plus you are saving $$ on labor and materials from installing the bracing to the stocker).
if I were to buy a 'performance bike out of the box', I would pay a bit more for the cleaner look and strength of the better frame.
on another note... I would like to throw one of those motors into my Supermini !!!
Dragging knee with a 15hp missile would put a smile on my face that would not go away. hehee
