test fitting the 16


still undecided...

I should be focusing on getting this thing running on gas and moving down the road rather than stupid details, but....

new tank on the way, should be here within a week or so...

What size wheel was on it? The 16 lewksa very gewd man! Not sure I like the sounds of "new tank on the way" Perhaps I will have to see how that looks on the XS, if you're going to abandon it that is:)

I'm with Dan re tank, [is it an XL ?] looks bang on but it's your gig, don't rush it 'down the road' until you're happy, glowing and warm and fuzzy on the inside. Neat proportions !!

I like this tank a lot, but knowing what's on the way I think it's worth a shot.

The 16 rules. The fat tire is what does it for me.

I'm into the wheel too. Looks good... Looks like you have the carbs back on, but you may have done that awhile ago.

yes, the carbs are on, however I still have no idea if they work well or not. I'm sure they will be back off to be tuned and jetted soon enough. Ben has said that I have a tank problem, I'm afraid it's only getting worse. I'm actually starting to hoard them.

Oh, and Danno, it has a 18" stock rear wheel.

Well if it makes you feel any better I have 4 sets of handlebars that are in the running and frankly Im not set on any of them...bunch of damn snobs we are.
