Re: fat tire or 6" ex.

I know this would sound utterly dumb, but what do you mean when you say 6" or 6" fat tyre?

Re: fat tire or 6" ex.

I think you should send you forks out to get a revalving and new ohlin springs.You should also get a penske,elka,ohlins rear shock to go with it.after that a good set of tires and youre on you way to motorcycle bliss.

That XX is a nice handling bike with these mods.all that stretch and fat tire **** takes away from ridability and value of the bike.youre never gonna beat a busa or zx14 in a straight anyway... but youll getem on the bend.

Re: fat tire or 6" ex.

I agree I wouldn't do either of those mods to that bike. I think most people on this forum agree and thats why you are not getting many responses.

Your going to screw up the handling of the bike with either of those mods. I wouldn't want to screw up the handling of my bike and I sure as hell wouldn't pay thousands of dollars to do it.

Leave the swingarm stock and invest in something that makes your bike more fun to ride and/or look better but not at the expense of screwing up the handling.
