 Turn a Classic into a classic-img_1202.jpg
I like all these! Mine is a 95 anniversary so it already had the 2 tone paint(on the tank) I love the nostalgic look but didn't want to loose or change my scheme.I like some new "stuff" and like the old school so I just changed a few things like fat mini apes,quick release on stuff I can pop off when not on longer trips,changed all the pegs,peddles,etc to older school looking ones,added new style 5 spoke wheels,BUT I'm thinking of putting back on the WW tires and wires,and ordered some fishtail mufflers. If it hadnt been for the anniversary model,I'd have gone as classic as I could!

It's a very sharp looking bike, rocketman.
Whitewalls would help the "classic" look but I'd think twice about going back to spoked wheels, they're a bear to keep clean and your wheels and rotors look great. the fishtails are a good idea, just be careful backing into curbs if they stick out too much.
Some easy mods might be fender trim rails, saddlebag rails and light visors.

All the best,

Good eye! I hadn't noticed those until you asked Mario.

Cant get the pics here at work but I'm guessing Avon Gangster Wide Whitewalls.
