those aresome good looking wheels on a good looking bike-- I saw some like those at thunder beach only black, gold and chrome. I damn near made a $1700 impluse purchase. U done good.

ORIGINAL: Fat Elvis

Thanks -- i recommend the rear as well. The 18" overall is larger than the stock 16". For me, although i am 6'1", god "blessed" me with 29" inseam (yes, i am SUPER TORSO). So i really needed to lower the rear.

Great look. That copper look is contageous. I've seen it done with actual copper on various parts for accent, and then they let them get the natural patina(sp) by not shooting them with clear coat so that the oxyidation process takes place. It is really sweet. Definitely different, and isn't that what we're all about? Ride safe and send some update photos as you continue the build. CCRyder
