Stock fenders or Maier? And did you use PVC pipe for the snorkel? Also, any mods needed to pull the larger/heavier tires, have heard engine performance increase may overpower the auto clutch or something of the sort?
Sorry for questions, wasn't me who texted you.
I didnt text you but gotta say that is one badd@$$ BR, is that a stock front end???? where did you get those rims?
All Maier fenders, PVC pipe snorkel coated in rubber undercoating, I have a Barnett Dirt Digger Clutch with heavy duty springs, full Cobra exhaust, UNI filter, rejetted from 130 stock to a 135 main jet & 2 sizes bigger slow jet. It pulls the 28's great!

Wow, any info on the life/extension of the forks? I just picked up a really beat big red, but the forks are straight, no major rust, and engine is free. Been wanting to build it up real nicely.
Did the clutch plates/springs cause it not to slip? Were those parts expensive and/or hard to find?
Thanks a lot!!
Well its kinda hard to explain since I had someone build the front lift for me & I was not there to see it being made!
I have been using the same clutch for at least 2 years now & it is bad ass, no slipping! Look here http://www.barnettclutches.com/produ...&clutch_cc=250
