PO had a wide glide setup and apes. removed wide glide tree, new bars, internal wires, new grips and throttle.


Front rim was rough, in many places and I didn't want to buy an entire new wheel.


So I found a brand new rim and kept the old spokes and hub, laced, trued up and balanced on a cheaper truing stand. Good times.


Additional parts inside!


Not the fanciest tires, but way better than the old rock hard rubber.
