    Wheels are from discount tire I think. Mb vdrives.
    Not even sure if they still carry them. I eventually grew out of the 'chrome" look but got many compluments on them before i painted them.

    You were there?
    I was there from before opening to about 11pm. Parked across the street behind a blue fj with camo top. That was the guy that had the table set up on the right when you walked in.
    Had steve weave me my winch line and I bailed

    I used to frequent the Yamaha dealer in pville before my R1 got stolen. Don't get over there much anymore.
