RE: New Softy from the ground up
The wheels are Sturgis wheels "Attitude" 19" X 3 1/5" front and 18" X 9" rear. I bought them direct from the company. They're great to do business with. The price was great and they shipped them the day I ordered.

Gonna be a fun toy to teach ricers to beware of the barking dog, it can bite too.
I like the wheels, who's are they.

No, no problems, you just have to stick to the guidelines. Each state has it's own specific policies and laws. I've done one before so I know what to expect.

It will be one mean machine.....Do you have any trouble with registering a bike built like that in the USA?

Subscribed! I want to see this one take shape.. I love the foundation with the fatter 19" front tire and those wheels, and you kept to a reasonably and tasteful rear tire. You're doing what I only wish I could do be building this scoot. Good luck!
