Making it into a chopper is too easy. Everyone does that though man! Make it into a daily rider, cafe racer or restore it back to normal
Ain't nothing wrong with having a restored classic
To be honest, it looks really good so far though. More inspiration for my eventual build..

Is that the voodoo Vintage hardtail? Is there room for a wider rim, say a 6 inch at least?

I'm sure you could go wider than stock but how much I don't know. I'm running a 170/70-16 tire but that is with a stick rim

Can you tell me how wide that 170 is ob the stock rim? Does it seem to fit the rim nicely? Thanks

Can't really tell from the picture but it's about 6 inches wide on the stock wheel. I've only been around the block so can't really tell you how well it handles.

Time for a new update. This project went a lot faster than I anticipated. Thanks to everyone here for the help with my questions. I can't believe its the beginning of Nov and I'm finishing with my "winter project". The bike is complete except for hooking up the blinkers. I'm just waiting on a controller to do that with, also have some wires to hide. Like I said this is just an update as I am waiting until it's complete and I can grab some pics before I finish up my thread. Should be shortly so be patient. Here is a teaser to the finished bike. Ask away with any questions and feel free to compliment or criticize my thread thus far. Will check back in soon. Ta Ta.
