:laugh: there used to be a guy in omaha years ago with a turbo z1r with a stock car tire on the back of it,it was very entertaining watching him go around corners on it! :woohoo:

It's not staying as big for long. the 16x3.5 with the 150/80/16 will be swapped for a 17x3.5 inch wheel is being prepped for paint, bearing swapped, and caliper spacer turned up. It will get a big tire treatment, sporting a 130/80/17.

I have plans for a gullwing style top triple that gives me a 25 mm lift for the under slung exhaust in the works... and of course..... some frighn paint. :woohoo:

Yeah Wireman , I mentioned once here my neighbor had a prostreet Kaw with a mickey thompsen street slick on it , that didn't corner well either, went real straight with the front tire off the ground and you didn't need a kickstand.

BTW, I really like the steel with no paint on it, if there was some way you could come up with a uniform brushed pattern, like brushed stainless look and clear it I think that would look awesome, even some kind of silver or somthin similiar to the gears of war 3 Trike PJD built, somethin that just says bare metal, even if its in paint, and given a choice between your bike and that Vrod I'd choose yours hands down.

i appreciate the sentiment.

i'm torn over what to do with the frame. Paint, bare metal with clear powder, bedliner frame, black powder... the list goes on
