I got a S90 tank for a buddy of mine last night. I'm going to do what ever it takes to get this thing to fit.

Rebel re pops will ride quite a bit better than those, and cost about the same money.



And the 11" shocks they sell at Dime City ride even better than the rebel re pops



And I'm with LDMC. I dig everything but the tank.



Man... I wish I could have kept mine. These bikes have some good lines for sure.
