I do not think a 16" will work. I put an 18 x 5.5 with an avon cobra 200/55r tire. Using the original belt and pulley you could barely get a paperclip between the tire and the belt


Thanks for the compliments everyone

Nice. The same kit as I am about to fit, but I have a few problems figuring out what rear rim to put on to fit at 200 tire? What is your rear rim and how much is your bike lovered?

Nice transformation. There is just something about a Deuce that looks good in any style.

I'm done with any changes in my 2000.
