Re: New Stuff on it's way - Part 2.

that is going to be one nice bike when it is done. Be sure to get some BOTM pics of the completed project.




































PS: i don't believe you that you are "done" modding the bike...

Re: New Stuff on it's way - Part 2.

Bike of the month pics....well everytime the bike gets photographed properly it normally has a half naked,or naked chick draped all over it....Lol! and yes i know that's oh so horrible to deal with, but it's my job! So next time, when the bike is "finished" we are going to set up a shoot with just the bike...just need to find a unique location to shoot it, so i can at least compete a little with some of the awesome photo's that get posted in here.

Yep no chicken strips on the Wolfbike! As for photo's, am planning on doing a track day pretty much as soon as i get the bike back with the latest new bits on it...and i have had it re dynotuned, and stiffened the suspension a bit more, will be getting some decent photo's, and, or video then hopefully.

Re: New Stuff on it's way - Part 2.

I like the type 3 rearsets better but I agree the subtle differences of type 2 will work better with the changes you have made to your bike. Between the discs and the rearsets I can't decide which is a more dramatic look. I actually priced the sets and discs a few months ago but just not in my budget yet but they are on my laundry list of things I'd like to do. Probably sometime next year I will need to decide how far to mod the bike vs saving that money for a new bike (or a house with a garage).

Maybe I missed something but didn't you buy cheap levers during the previous frenzy of mods?
