Re: OCC/Indian re-chop

Looks great A.C.!!!! What a cool transformation!!!!! 8)

you said the original forks were messed up when you got the bike. Have you ever ridden a stock O.C.C. bike? I'm wondering how the bike handles with your new forks as compared to the original forks because it looks like there is a fair amount less trail in the front end now.

Also, I just looked a this pic again . . . is this sandblasted or something?

i rode the bike stock when i got it. it handles about the same. as for the wheel, its just satin black sprayed on dry to give it a more textured look.thanks for all the comments dudes! oh and elvis, thanks again for the bars man! how'd the forks work out for you?

I could be wrong, but I thought I would post my thought before you got too far, just in case I'm correct, that longer cranks might be more helpful on the hills than shorter ones. Unless you meant smaller chain ring (front sprocket), then you would be correct. That would indeed help on hills.

Great job on the bike, btw.

no, i meant shorter cranks. its the way you sit on that thing. you'd have to ride one up a hill to understand where i was comin' from.-Atomic
