Sorry if you were expecting a speeder bike. Sort of cheering myself up on a kinda crappy day.

Nice, certainly saves on tyres. The belt is a bit loose though...  ;D

I would like a step by step procedure done in the tech section so anyone wanting to replicate could do so.

NO MORE FLATS!  8-) 8-) 8-)
How's it corner? much fabrication involved?

I would expect you could really lean in the corners. Especially with how much ground clearance it has.

Man, I have to say, wrestling that rear wheel was a workout!  What an amazing improvement though. Love having new tires on a bike.  Leans so much better now.

always big fun
that's why I like to raise mine on a floor jack, then lower it to the wheel
On my Ninja, which had a centerstand, I made a little ramp to roll the wheel up, to the righ height
i still had to balance it of course, but at least I didn't have to lift it and hold it up
I bet there's a way to use a ratchet strap to make it easier on the Savage

With heavy wheels, I use my foot...
Roll the wheel into place, then put your foot behind it, roll it onto your toe, and lift with your ankle... Leaves both hands to maneuver onto the axle...
