Hey guys, i've got a few misc questions that i'm looking to get some answers for.
I'm looking to get 2.5 ground clearance, and plan to run a 19 in the front, and 16'' 180 in the back. That where the majority of my questions are from.
A) i have a 40 degree rake, could i use stock forks, and have a 19'' in fit? will it be tight or something? would this prevent me from achieving a 2.5 inch ground clearance?
B) planning on having it hardtailed, with either a 3 or 4 inch stretch (again making it have 2.5 ground clearance). And the big part, running a 180! what all do i need to change out in order to run that big 180? is it difficult? pricey?
C) I don't know much about engines + Carbs. But I have a 81 engine, will any carb from any xs650 work? or do i need to specificly have a carb from a 81?
Thanks guys!
