a mate of mine was able to get his hands on some 6061 tube and even bent the main radius for me(thanks juddy) all i had to do was put in the second small bend back near the pegs.

very nice, does the Y beeing that high up bother the rads?

I think doing a complete cradle is the 'right' way to do it.
Looks great!

If stock looking was the goal, you've more than reached it. Looks great! I'm also curious about the rads. Any clearance issues?
