Damn, very nice bike. did you get a 23" front wheel on that thing without doing any change in rake? Looks stock in the pics. I was under the impression that max on stock was a 21", but if you've pulled it off, just wondering how it feels? Looks damn good, that's for sure.
I'm jealous!

Default getting there, still have a ways to go...This is the fun part

Here is where I am at now, still have a ways to go however. I get lots of "nice bike" every day almost, no matter where I stop, lights, store, my mail box...
I know where I want to go, Diff wheels, 21"f, 18"r or 17"r... Suspension tuning, (excuse to buy black front legs.. and what ever else goes into those, cartridge, springs, fluids, which brands I don't know enough here in this area to be more specific. Next a paint job that retains most of the denim black with it starting to tears off exposing a shiny version of the same paint. The backside of the denim paint has a carbon fiber finish where it shows, where it has pealed back to reveal the hidden shiny black w/red pin stripes, like the denim version is just a coating that peals off like a plastic wrap. Perhaps some lighting changes, signals 1st!
I probably have done a few smaller items since these pics.
