Just bought this bike and here I am noticing all the little issues it has.
-first off the rear was swapped to a 16" Harley I believe with a 5.00-16 tire. The brake plate is cracked and broken. Looking at it closer the tire is about 3/4" set to the right side of the bike and has a 51 tooth sprocket so it's very low geared. What's my best option for doing it right? Are stock xs650 wheels offered in 16" and 18"?
-second, the front wheel is a Harley 21" with no front brakes. I have the brake plate assembly to put in this wheel, but the forks don't have any bolt holes to build a bracket to keep the brake plate from spinning. Is it safe to build a bracket off the 2 spindle cap bolts?
