i been wonderin this for awhile and just now decided to make a thread about it.
i really like the look of the older Tecates, with the low rear end and wide front forks, like this....

142141

is there any way i could fit a wide front end like that on my 200x, without any choppin and weldin of the frame? could i change bearing sizes or somethin to make it fit? may not even try it, but im a curious person.....

the 81 and 82 250r had wide forks but a wide tire too. but they bolt right up no mods except maybe the steering stops
