Thanks guys. I am real happy with the wheels. To answer your questions, the are Performance Machine Judge wheels (same as GMONEY220) with the matching 11.5" PM Judge rotors. It is a 21" x 3.5" front with a 18" x 4.25" rear. Metzler tires. I also did the Lyndall brake pads all around at the same time. I bought everything from Hogpro. They do a great job.

The tools have already been recycled....ever feel that odd warm spot in a pool.....could be someone just recycled some "tools".

I just took the bike out for a shake down ride in the beautiful 40 degree weather!! It feels great. It handled REALLY good. At speed the bike is very neutral when cornering, smooth, steady. At the lower speeds it does turn in a little. It did raise the bike a little more than I was expecting so I am sure I will be looking at a Platnium system down the road...Shooter64...sharpen your pencil!!

Amazing difference!!

Before......
After........

the wheels changed the whole look of the bike, excellent choice great looking scooter---I will take a closer look at RGs when it's time to trade.

the 21/18 combo on touring bikes looks so cool to me.

Those are a nice set of wheels. Good choice. It's amazing how much a set changes the look of a bike.

Oh, and can I borrow your tools?
