Right on, well if you get a chance and can go out and look on the sidewall for the size I would appreciate it. Im looking to get some road tires and am curious how they will look. I like the way yours look, which is why I am asking. I don't want to get some tires that look like big ass balloons. They are both 10" rims right?

Thanks!

I think the tires are IRC M38s in 80/90 x 10" size.



They are OK for messing around on the street, but for the track I would run something on the order of TT91s or K61s. 80/90 TT91s remain a small tire, but the 90/90 TT91s and K61s are BIG, like this:

Very sweet looking bike!!



Why the spark arrestor?

I like both bikes alot !!

I'm sorry dude , but you really gotta paint the clutch cover on your motard !!!

What type of forks are those on the motard ?? They look black . Are they Billetwares ???

The spark arrestor becuase i am messing around all over the streets in my town and i want it to be a little quieter!



johnnyB: Why paint the clutch cover? How? The forks are stock with the red barron +1 leg kit and disk brake kit and two bros +1 springs! I put a lot of stickers on them and carbon fiber fork guards on them because the gold on them would not go with the colors of the rest of my bike!



Ricepow: This si what it says off the side of the tire(i have no clue what any of it means): IRC Jetty M838 80/90-10 44J



Any other sugestions? Where can i get those tires?(filthyboatguy)



Thanks

- To me , that clutch cover looks so beat up !!! The paint is worn off in spots and I feel it takes away from the very clean look that the rest of the bike has ..

- I recently sand blasted my ignition cover and painted it Hand Hammered Grey , ( SEE PIC BELOW ..). I don't know how the wear factor is of the paint job , but it'll be very easy for me to blast it again and put a fresh coat on .

- I think I'm gonna try to do it to my Takegawa 5 disk cover sometime soon ..

- If you didn't wanta paint it you can also get the Light speed carbon covers , but I see you already have the ignition cover so to spend that kinda money to use the clutch cover side only would be impractical .



Sorry bro !!! Don't hate me , I'm just very maticulous :D ...
