A lot of speculation...lol
I guess we'd need to understand the motivation, show bike primarily??? More concerned about looks and the ability to trailer the bike from show to show?
I understand the appeal of oversized after owning a Vrod with the monster back tire......and a 22 Sportster S with the the Wide Front Tire......
Part of the appeal for the Sportster S WAS the front tire!.....It actually handled a lot better than I thought it would.....but the novelty quickly wore off after 30 minutes in the saddle.....what a PITA......literally.....But I'm also 65 and decided that I wanted to enjoy riding and needed more comfort without sacrificing performance.....
I'm always interested in "unique"....and I'm following this thread as well......
My needs are a little more basic.....Stage 1, upgrade the front and rear suspension, saddle and bars......then I'm done!
I have Ohlins front and back ordered, I already the stage 1 and seat completed.......I'll adjust the bars when the Ohlins are installed.....so that one may need some saddle time in the spring.....
One of the great things about the SG/RG platforms is that there are options....and since there are companies already doing the Wide Wheel Kit's, it's got to be a trend somewhere......
