    First they make a nice looking chrome powder coat . Second yall need to make a new set of tripletrees for that , the ones you have on it are WAY to wide ! If you make a set so that the forks end up just wide enough for the tire , not only will it look 5000 percent better but it will improve the turn radius and make it easier to mount a front fender !

    Milwaukee makes a nice knockout set. It's way easier to handle then the hydraulic. Big down fall is the price.

      Mark...their called chassis punch's in electronics manufacturing for another use for tube sockets but it's made by a tool & die maker & your basically limited to 1/16" of an inch mild steel,thicker if alloy & turned with an Allen key,also great for making crankshaft main brging spacer shims but that's a trade secret.Trev NZ

    Stretch the back half of the frame at least a foot, that will really help the wheelie issue and you can keep the sprocket ratio!
