dont know who it belongs to... sweet bike though... looks like stock rim but the all black makes visual effects larger i think. but i would guess 140 maybe 150... though i dont even know if a 150 would fit on that rim.

Looks cool but I think the handling would suffer with that front tire fitted? Cheers, 50gary

hey gary here in illinois our roads are so bad theres no such thing as handleing the bigger the tire the smaller the bump ive been looking at floatation tires the ag trucks use , and if its not enough the potholesalone or they use a tar strip to seal cracks hit one of these on a curve, thats when the dirt riding experiance pays off..

I wonder if that's a rear 16" rim that's been converted to run on the front ? It looks like it barely fits between the forks  |

That is an interesting site I never heard of bratstyle. I really like the looks of some of them. They have kind of a quazi street tracker, street fighter, bobber type thingee going on with them.
One thing I did notice though, that was strange, was the foot pegs. They were mounted really high on many of the bikes with a brake and shift linkage incorporated into the pegs. I have to wonder what the riding position might be with them so high.

I was wondering if anyone on here knew about Brat Style. I'm new to this board, and I just picked up a free xs650 last week. I need to put it together though. Has anyone seen the magazine: Custom Burning? It's bad! It's all sr's and some xs's totally simplified. The brat style parts are pricey though. They are charging around a grand for their custom tanks.
