Proof...arrow pointing forward in direction of rotation.

Tire looks fine to me, the rain grooves always curve back toward the bike. Rear tire should be the opposite.

hey Shakey are you able to use the stock seat with that strutless rear fender you are putting on? And how close does it sit to the tire? You got a mock up pic that shows the fender with seat and tire all together?

Elvira: Dude, I'm a moron, I thought your bike was facing the opposite direction!

Terd: You have no idea how cool that bike is up close. That's an absolute steal at that price.

Hahaha ya'll had me thinking I was gonna hafta take all that **** apart! All good all good...

where is the cheapest, quickest place to get rear pulley spacers? I got a 7/8 for the wide tire conversion and the pulley is all on the swingarm now. Looks like I could get away with a 3/8ish spacer and didn't really wanna shave this one down that much.

I know it, you have no idea how much I know it... I would love to get my hands on it, just don't have the funds... I pray it's around long enough for me to get the $ together, I've been stalking his listings for awhile.

make sure you get new bolts for the pulley - don't re-use, thye are a one time use

Funny stuff Lund! I love the part with the guy getting shot with what looks like a Roman candle.
