September 2012:





Winter mods on the horizon, new bars, triple trees, coil relocation, and other little details.

Nicely done, but FWIW, I like the front wheel on the 2010 version, too. How differently does it handle with the 21" installed? tomp dd50

the first wheel is the stock 19" with 90 tire, new front is 21" with 120 wide...between the wider tire and going from the dun lops to the Metz, it was a night and day difference, bike does not track at all in road cracks, seems and fills.

That's the one thing I don't like about my FXDC, It follows any those things in the road you mentioned. I understand your decision to change...
