    On my build I am planning on doing just this but I have more room to play with because I am using a 4.5 inch rear wheel. and a 150 rear tire.

    thanks for the tip bro

    I already have a set that I bought for 50$ but they are pitted and yours lookes cleaner in the pics.

    To fit a fat wheel in the back youre gonna nee a wide swingarm. Here is what I did on mine. My wheel is gonna get thrown on soon Ill update the pics. You are also going to need an offset front sprocket and youll need to beat the frame rail in some to the get the chain to clear. I used a 4.5in wheel but a 5inch could be done but wont be easy.

    ..when I see your bike I sure miss my long-gone '72 CL350 Scrambler. It was a soggy thing compared to your bike but the insurance rate-class here meant it had a good $/fun ratio...IT needed a back-rack...

    ps-you made that? too cool.yours is probably the other one I've seen
    Haha yeah I had to stick some in here... and I've now seen pic's of three 450's with the genuine optional racks, and not one owner has wanted to part with it... so yeah I had an old carry rack sitting around that I cut and shaped to attach to the grab rail. Then John82q welded it up for me as he'd seen my previous welding efforts

    Where in GA are you? What did you do with the old wheels?
