My 1500 classic bagger build

Well I picked this bike up a few months ago and got spend some time riding it as is. I really liked the bike but it definately needed some changes for my level of comfort and looks. Once winter hit I decided to start gathering the parts that I needed. Here are some picks of the bike as I purchased it and what I have done with it.

Next was an upgrade to the handlebars.

Then it was onto the tail.

Then came the Rotation Industries 21" wheel.

Very nice job of customizing. Definitely making it your own.

Nice ride! Love that front wheel, what needs to be swapped to put that wheel on ? Rotors? Calipers ?

Ponitail · 12-26-2015, 08:28 AM

Very nice. The next best thing to riding is customizing it.

e30dean · 12-26-2015, 11:34 AM

Its a direct swap wheel that doesnt need any extra parts altough I believe they offer aftermarket chrome rotors to match the rim. The rotor is my factory one from the original wheel, calipers didnt need any modification. Uses factory axle and spacers.
