| just a little hint, every panel is a different retro graphic design. I think an old school paint scheme will contrast well on such a futuristic bike. |

| yes, it's a 21" up front, with an 8 degree rake.
The pipes are stock heat shields powder coated with crinkle black.
The tips are HotVic.com's "king" tips, (available in chrome too!)
And the mufflers (more like amplifiers) are also HotVic, they have the baffles removed and the ends bored out to 3" diameter. |

| Love the look of your bike. I'm planning on putting a 21" on mine. How does it ride? (+ and -) |

Central Wisconsin | Looks sweet! Curious what you did to the cyclop light, is it half blacked out?

Thanks. I like my 21" very much. you can go 2 ways with the 21 wheel:
A. you can just raise the fender up and swap the stock wheel for the bigger one. on the plus side, the wheel fills the space entirely, and looks nice when using a single side rotor. on the negative, this raises the front of the bike up 1 1/2" which i think this make the bike feel a bit top heavy when doing slow turns.
B. you can add an 8 degree triple tree and extend the forks 1 1/2". on the plus side, this pushes the wheel further forward which lets you see more of the wheel, and lowers the front of bike back down to stock height. the longer wheel base makes for a smoother ride on the highways. on the negative side, the slow speed turning radius is a little worse.
My bike has the 8 degree rake, and I like it very much. another added benefit to the 8 degree tree; with a little modification to the head light, you can go to a 23" wheel!
