This bike is built on an AutoZone part time income, so its not going to be an award winner in any way, I've actually put most of my money in the engine and transmission to make sure its beyond road worthy. Because I plan on taking this bike on the autotrain next summer and driving it home via the Blue Ridge Parkway with nothing but a few pairs of pants and shirts and a sleeping bag.

Thanks!! Uhhh they are IRC 3.50-16, pretty much the cheapest tires at the local shop, but they are made in Japan and they look pretty nice.

Ohh yea I believe I saw your bike, now that's a project! But they're awesome bikes and maybe one day you'll have some extra $$$ to start it.
