Default Deluxe w/black lower forks
I was wondering has anyone with a black Deluxe put black lower fork legs on? Do you have any pics? I think it would look tough but would like to see it before I consider doing it myself.

Also, wondering is there anyway to put a wide (200mm) rear tire on a Deluxe? With the fat look of the bike I think it would look sweet but not sure anyone makes a wide tire with a white wall, even if it would fit on the bike.

I have a deluxe and love the blacked out look but I was curious to see one myself. Post pics if you decided to do it.

A train is not a deluxe but maybe you can picture these on your bike?

I think the solid color Deluxes look better with Solid black tires. I love em both ways though![8D]

Fat tire on a deluxe...oh boy. The lowers are one thing, the tire might look silly...IMO that is.
