New Wheel Installed on Bob....WITH PICS

RE: New Wheel Installed on Bob....WITH PICS
One thing I did have to do after riding it was bring the forks up through the clamps about a 1/2 in. The overall height of the new wheel/tire was about 1/2 taller than the stock set up. Doesnt seem like much, but after riding it I had to bring the front back down. Didnt have any clearance issues with the fender though.

Here is a better picture of the rotor side. I had to splurge for the nicer rotor. Puttin the stock rotor on there just wouldnt have worked.

Yeah, I got a pair of take off lowers for extra cheap from a buddy. They have never even seen the street. This way, I can have the chromed without a lot of down time with the bike. Im gettin all my parts needing to be chromed gathered up here pretty quick. The bike looks lopsided with a dull aluminum wheel in the back and a nice shiney new chrome wheel in the front. I think the headlight and the wheel kinda compliment each other.
All I did to the forks were loosen the triple clamps and slip up the forks about a half an inch. I have the stock bars and have no clearance issues. I just dont have a pic of the upper forks at the moment. I know Im gonna have issues with road groves that I didnt have with the stock wheel, but in my opinion the narrow wheel handles better. Thanks for all the compliments guys.
