I NEED TO KNOW..... by: low_tie_89@hotmail.com
Hey man first off SICK FREAKEN BIKE! I love it! A few questions tho. #1. How'd you convert to a chain driven setup? #2. How'd you convert to a chain driven? And #3 What did you use to make the swingarm? Overall the bike is flawless in my opinion and i'm in desperate need of some information on how you converted to chain driven (obviously haha!). I've got the same exact bike mine had the fairing on it i pulled off with every bit of it completly stock. I can't take the stock look i want a 180 rear tire and a chain drive on it! So PLEASE I'M BEGGING YOU HELP A BROTHER OUT!!!! Thanks josh. low_tie_89@hotmail.com YOUR AS AWESOME AS YOUR BIKE IS!!!
