New Train on the block
Just picked up a 2008 Night Train about 3 weeks ago. Finished up my wheel install today and everything is looking good so here's some pics.
Wheels are 23x3.5/18x5.5 DNA 60 spokes. I'm running an Avon Cobra in the front w/ a Metz 880 rear. I've read here about how the 200mm Cobra sits funny on the back so that explains the mismatched tires. Next mod is a one-off exhaust by Vanguard Cycles here in Charleston, then I need to get the front lowered. Many more mods in the plans, but I've only got about 60 days left before I deploy.

It's going to be a Skirtblowers style of exhaust, but with a custom pipe routing like in the attached pic. All black and we're going to turn some custom tips and have them polished to a chrome-like finish.
You mean because of the tread direction? I know it looks wrong, but the directional stamp on the tire is correct as well as being mounted on the wheel correctly. The rotor can only be mounted on one side of the hub so it's right.
Nice! Those pipes are gonna look badass!
Welcome from Buffalo, NY, bike looks great! I'm looking forward to seeing those pipes on your bike, way to be unique.
