I have never liked the profile they have....Plus they are a pain in the ass to change tires on.

Dr.Wreck · 01-01-2008, 03:14 PM

That looks good, I might try that...

Well I'm not really racing super moto, I just like the look, I just cruise around and some stunt riding. BTW, the only problem I see so far is the front hub is too wide, so I'll have to have it machined down.

yzracer141 · 01-01-2008, 03:36 PM

Don't do the front, it looks good the way it is right now.

slowkid6 · 01-01-2008, 03:46 PM

very nice

mitchcroghan952 · 01-01-2008, 04:00 PM

Looks kind of goofy, but whatever.

Danman2540 · 01-01-2008, 04:55 PM

I'm gonna do the front too, I want to have matching wheels.

EddieNewYork · 01-01-2008, 05:43 PM

Nice, are those 10" as well. And, what did you have to do to get it on there? Does it just bolt right on? Please post more pics when you get a chance.

50-50 · 01-01-2008, 05:56 PM

I think that looks cool. Post photos when you get the front wheel on.

Giant Rider · 01-01-2008, 06:50 PM

For all intensive purposes the bike doesn’t look bad. I would be interested to hear you’re initial thoughts on how it road after your inaugural test run.

Danman2540 · 01-01-2008, 06:54 PM

yes they are 10". Here's some better pics of it mocked up on my ghetto "lift". It might be a little while before I finish it because I 'll have to find somebody to machine the front wheel and I'm pretty busy right now, but I will definately post pics and let you guys know what it took to make it happen when I do finish it.

cripto_valentine · 01-01-2008, 07:38 PM

looks real good. make sure if u machine the front that u can still mount the front brake

Danman2540 · 01-01-2008, 07:46 PM

thanks for the warning but it looks good by my measurements. the tightest place is between the chain and the tire.

10-32 · 01-01-2008, 08:00 PM

ive got a set of those for sale if anybody is interested

jmurray192 · 01-01-2008, 08:20 PM

I think it looks great! Only down side is no one knows the durability of them. But for your use they will work out perfect. Good job I would love to see the finished product.

B.K. · 01-01-2008, 08:40 PM
