Are these tire sizes good for non shouldered OEM rims?
Thanks,

Hey Deez,
Thanks for the heads up - I still want to run the AM26's so I guess I'll have to see if they have a better size comparable to the 2.75 and 3.0. I haven't looked into it, but i saw yours and just figured I would ask.
I want to go red on the frame and forks, and silver on the stock tank, headlight, and fiberglass tail section. I'm currently trying to find a used second gear and some cotter's for my tranny (dogs are worn and the cotter's were in pieces) so I'm back to working on the body and frame until I can find some parts.
Hopefully mine will turn out as nice as yours!

byrd im sure your bike will be nicer! i like how you polished the engine covers that looks nice! so i need some opinions on what color i should paint my bike, im going to powdercoat the frame black. as far as the rest its either gloss black or a matte satin black. parts that will have paint are the tank, cafe seat, headlight bucket, fork lowers ( not running the shields and such ), and lower triple. what do you guys think?
