Default Pics with the new blade wheel.....

One step closer to spring & it's almost ready to go. The last project I'd like to do is changing the bars to mini apes. I like the drag bars but they tend to make me lean a little forward & my back has been barking up a storm lately. I'd like to lean back a bit more but it would require all new cables & wire extension kits which add up to more than I want to spend so I'm not sure yet.

Thanks for the good words, just dont know what to do with the bars if I change them out at all. Wild 1 makes some nice drag barslike mine with more pullback & height but I'd like to sit on a similar bike with them on. No can find [:@]
