teazer said:Interesting project. I can't get past the 3.5" x 17" front rim though. That's a touch wide for the front end of a seventies 125/175 dirt bike isn't it? What are you planning for the rear and what's the overall plan - mini motard or something different?
The 17x3.5" front might have not been the best choice if I'm being honest lol. The plan has been 17x3.5" front with 110-70 front tire, 17x3.5" rear with 130-70 tire, I'm gonna have to mount up a tire on this front hoop and see what it's gonna look like, if I'm not happy with the outcome I'll put the 110-70 on a 2.5".
The overall plan is I guess cafe with a bit of scrambler in it. This dt125 that I'll post a pic of has a huge inspiration to me on this build.
