I've been contemplating going with a wider front tire, that looks great.

Thanks..really looking forward to getting it out and putting a few miles on it. Have some Legend Revo coming for the rear so hopefully that will complete the suspension for me...

Love that look, really want to do the same to mine.

What front wheel is that and how close is it to the design of the original one, I have 19" Black Talons, final question, who makes the front tire and what size is it?

I'm about to put a 150 on my stock 18" front wheel. If that doesn't blow my skirt up, a 180 front will be on the short list before summertime.
