stock tire vs 160mm:



So now I just have to put the mother back together....with all custom parts.....auuugh!!!

I already test fitted the new triple clamp, and it fit just like the stocker, cause part of it is the stocker, so we're good there. I just have to figure out the fork stops because they are totally incompatible. I have a choice to make, either trim down the tab on the frame neck, or grind off the sv fork stops and drill/tap and mount a big bolt to make a new stop on the bottom clamp. I haven't decided which yet, but I'd rather not permanently modify the frame, although at this point I don't really know why I care about that!

The next week will be exciting!!!
