Nice front end. Did you rake it for the front wheel? Is that a 21?

Really sharp looking bike, but I agree with the majority. The shields need to be black.

Thanks everyone.

I was leaning towards black also, so black it is. I have a blue console and blue oil tank to change out if I want later, but I like the black contrast with just a few chrome touches.

It handles like stock, but has much more lean angle before the floor boards touch down. I did not rake the front end, but added a standard length monotube to the forks.

The front in a 23"/130mm and the rear is a 18"/180mm.

I like the clean lines of your ride along with the blue paint and black components. Tastefully done….

THANK YOU very much! I was torn between the stock tank emblem or the 110th anniversary ones. I believe it was a good choice.

I just got my Slim last week. I had no plans on a ton of mods including wheels. Looking at those pics has me thinking about saving up for some wheels.
