Whitewall pictures?

Is there any pictures of guys (or girls) that have ran whitewall tires on their kz? I'd really like to see what it would look like with some spoke wheels. Anyone know of good brands/availability.

I'd like to see a little rat-cycle attempt be made by someone. I realize its a little over-done right now. But I live in western canada, not west L.A so I think my originality factor would be safe.

I was thinking, powercoat red header/exhaust, flat matte color (beige or khaki green or charcoal grey)and some flat drag bars, with whitewalls wrapped around the spokes.

Now, to me that would be hottness...and I need that up here in cold ass Calgary.

Hey you might check out Hardcore Chopper forum at www.hortoncustoms.com a few bobber builders there for you to get ideas from.

How about this one ?



It should look familiar to you

I'm looking into whitewalls myself, have my eye on the maxxis classic tire. I will have to replace the front pretty much right away it's rotted badly. Just got it back on the road today after I bought it 5 month ago. Feels great !

Here are a couple of pics of Lt. Dan´s great looking KZ400 Bobber with whitewalls, more info on make and dimensions in this thread.

awesome...awesome.

I'm working in the cold fall air trying to get my bike running before the onset of winter. I can't wait to ride it.

Make sure you keep me posted when you mount some white wall tires. Which brand, size, how they ride.

I'm definately a fan of the flat black, whitewall. If I could put it into one word, I would say: Bitchin'

I have been thinking of putting whitewalls on my bike. Here is a photoshop to show what it would look like. I am not sure if I like it or not...

I think it needs the spokes to pull it off. I always liked white letters with black bikes...probably doing that to mine next tire change.

Yes, I agree. you need to have spokes to really pull that whitewall look off.

That was a big reason for me to pick a KZ was because I got the classic Brit style, with advantages of disc brakes etc...

there's no school but the old school.
