I've always liked those rims.

Ur bike is clean, simple, and sweet...

I know some like it without the front fender,, but once I tried it, Don't get caught in a rain cause U'll get the water spray off the fr tire right back into Ur face while riding. At least mine did.. May look sweet, but impractical IMO to not have one.

Thanks guys, I like the no fender look too but we'll see how it is after I paint the fenders and put them on. I hate catching rain with no front fender. The front tire is a 120 70 21. Outlaw I saw the sprocket brake and the inboard brake setups and I wish I had gotten on now haha.

No fender or paint it black. Looks great without the brake, maybe just drag your feet to stop.

I really wasn't a big fan of the black line, but damn your bike is ****!!

Are those apes mounted the same way as your factory bars were?
