Can you clearly see the tires in my previously posted pics?
I could take pics or show them to you when I drop off that motorcycle.

Racing adds up the milage getting there, hard on the wallet.  I might have a local spot to race but not sure yet.  I really want tires with snowmobile studs for recreational riding this winter ???

Well, I think I've officially decided on what I'm doing for the front end, I think I'm going to run r6 shocks on the front. Instead of a lowering kit. 2 bolts and the shocks are out vs pulling the a-arms off completely. Fairly cheap investment. (like $70ish) for 2 fronts. looking into options for the rear. 8)

i would be more intrested in tire size offset to create wedge, than altering suspension geometry. Atleast while your just learning.

Like how Sprint cars run.

Might ask Bama on his set up for flat track. It won't be much different for ice other than studded tires.

Not sure the exact measurement eyelet to eyelet, but they are a direct bolt on I know that much, and from what I've been seeing poking around on e-bay, they are fairly cheap.
