Quote: GREAT WORK!!! SOME BLACK GATORS ON THOSE FORKS (I THINK) WOULD LOOK GREAT AND REALLY SET THE FRONT END OFF! TALK TO ME ABOUT YOUR AIR FILTERS...INTERESTED IN WHAT I NEED TO BUY TO CLEAN UP THE CENTER. ALSO, WHERE TO BUY WHITEWALLS...I AM IN THE MARKET FOR NEW TIRES AND HAVE BEEN WANTING THEM FRONT AND BACK. THANKS!
Yeah jeff i was waiting for you to post. Theres not much to buy to move the battery to the center. You need 2 L-shaped brackets from home depot, and 4 decent sized lock nuts and bolts. The rest is just cutting the battery tray because theres 2 flanges that stick off the side and the bottom, then you just bolt the L-shaped brackets to the back of the battery tray and then you use the 2 rear fender bolts to hold the bracket/battery tray assembly up. Check out the diagram i drew in one of the previous posts to get a visual. Also you can PM "nightrider" for some more pics of the battery tray being bolted with the brackets. He just got done moving his battery and has some mid-assembly shots of everything. I wish I had the patience to keep the camera next to me when im working, I just like to focus on the task at hand..haha...taking pictures, for me, is like being too confident that its going to actually work in the end..haha
My rear tire is a dunlop whitewall that came with the bike, i have no clue what model. And the front is a Maxxis 120/90 18...both tires are for tubless but theyre mounted with tubes anyway. I had to warn the guy mounting it that I know its not "made for the bike" and all that....I also have no handling issues with the wider front tire at all.
