Ok,

Now were talkin'...

My "custom Trumpet" post is asking for some photo's like these for inspiration. Gimmie more...

Mick, I would love to see a rear view of your bike to see how the new wheel looks. Any thoughts on a wider rim...210 or 230 mibbies

Cheers

Here you go!



Persoanlly I think you would have problems with anything much wider than a 180 - it would require moving the centerline of the wheels to the right and could upset the balance of the bike.

Here's Bob.
I've been lurking as of late and haven't been on the forum much but here's some pics of my 97' Adventurer:

There's bolt on chrome but really the biggest changes were:

Wrapping the pipes

Putting on 70's shorty mufflers

Custom lift of front fender for Maxxis Classic White Walls.

Corbin Seat

Blue LED clock lights

Rear shock upgrade

And the big one...the one you either love or you hate: FORWARD CONTROLS!!!

Italians do it better
Are Italians really guarantors for good taste. Well, I found these heavily modded Bonnie on an italian website. I think that, it is a special one. Many new ideas came true in this bike. For we can discuss about the colour, the pattern of the seat covers, but...look and rate for yourself!

Greetings from EUROPE/AUSTRIA!
