With all these changes, are you going to lose some ground clearance?
I think a gunfighter would look great.
yeah it still needs to be adjusted, I had just got the axle through for the first time and it was still loose. Thanks for the heads up though.

I would like a gunfighter.

Sweat,
I'm curious to how much of a "bolt in" operation the rear wheel was?

The sprocket carrier face had to be milled down, about 15mm if I remember correctly, I would have to check my notes to be certain, new wheel spacers had to be made, and a custom brake rotor cut. Not much of a bolt on mod!

I believe a CBR f3 wheel is an easier fit, I'm not sure what years though.
