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!!!
