i was talking to a buddy of mine about my previously posted idea, and aside from the struts being able to fit after the conversion, he was like "We could totally do that to your bike! that thing would look sick with a 250 or 260 on it!"

ohhh dreams..

Finally put the "wide tire" on my E-Z Rocker Wide tire kit.
I had a few issues with my kit, but Drew and Heartland took care of it and made it right. It is good to know that there are still companies that will stand behind their product and solve any problems. Thanks guys

That's just the seat. I added it to the cart and it says 180 conversion SEAT. Jim, Jake, and Josh take note. PM incoming.

Here's a question.. the 2-5-0 swingarm in Chrome is $554.. the 2-5-0 swingarm in Gloss Black is $150.. does that make a lack of sense to anyone else? is chrome really a $400 accessory?

I'm in no way prepared to modify my bike with a 250 kit..yet. But just noticing things like this raises questions..
