Finally got the XLs mounted and installed. I know many have these and larger too, but I was excited to change the NDCCs out. These are HEAVY! Those with 1100s on bobbed dueces, what tire pressure do you maintain? I have 65 up front and 40 in back. Front wandered a little which it didn't do with the NDCCs.

I like the look of it as well. So tell me...how do you like driving it bobbed now? Can you give me a run down on how it performs vs. the standard deuce configuration?

RE: Re: RE: Installed Michelin tires

Last time I drove a full deuce was at Ft. Sill in 1982! I think the exhausts all exited above the tandem (is that the earlier diesel engine--427?). Anyway, I bought this one cut down by Dave Newman at Eastern Surplus. It drives great on the road. Very straight and easier to manuever. It fits into parking places even! I am very happy with it cut down. Dave's been great about the whole deal and I would buy from him again in a second! Wheels will be painted this weekend!
