I'm also looking forward to seeing how the bike rides with the new set of radial tires.

Did a bit of powder coating and part swaps over the winter. 9 pieces that were gloss black are now matte. Radial Bridgestone Exedra Max's.......GREAT tires with a much improved profile for better turn in and very good stick. A set of Arlen Ness mini-oval mirrors and, since I was tired of the condensation in the OE speedo, a Dakota Digital unit.




















Oh so close to gettin' rid of the chicken strips.........

So those tires stick better and have quicker lean in? Same sizes as stock or more narrow?
