Default Making some changes..

What up folks and folkettes! Starting to get bored with my NT again so I decided to order some early christmas presents!

New 23" demons cycle front wheel and metzeler tire, monotube front drop ins from progressive, rear progressive 422 shocks, and custom dynamics inserts for my signals!

Have only received the front wheel so far, tire and signal stuff should be here tomorrow. I'll post more pics along the way, but here's a before and a wheel pic to hold you over!

Tire showed up and got it mounted. Test fitted the wheel today to see if for ***** and giggles my spacers would work. Well they would not... so soon as I get hooked up with some spacers from my machinist the wheel will be on. But here's a teaser pic in the mean time! Also had my signal bullets coated black and installed the front LED rings today. Waiting for the rears to get here early next week.

I like the rake it has now. The progressive monotube drop ins I ordered should be the lowering ones, but I got them off amazon for a lesser price than from anywhere else, so we'll see! The dealer I used to work at was nice enough to hook me up with a discontinued floating rotor for $50, so I won't have to re-use my stock one.

Soo delay in all this.. I have all the LEDs on with a triple play flasher for the rear. But my clutch decided to grenade itself lol. Holding off on putting anything else on it until I get that fixed!
