what's wall thickness on that lawn furniture? (lol) Just kidding; but wouldn't getting a little bit beefier be worth it a little more? Ya' know, the difference between an 'ooh' and an "aaahhhhh"!

Ha. This tubing is ALOT meaner than my subframe stuff. Its 1" od 1/8" wall.
Lets just say it took a torch and annealing plus a big cheater bar and my body weight to get it to want to start bending.
Thats opposed to the subframe stuff where I can hold it out in front of me and bend it with my bare hands like in the cartoons.

Yeah, I just wanted to make that you take tire expansion at speed into account. They can stretch up to 2cm...from personal experience on my 1000RR after I burned a hole through my stock hugger.

Id rather build it having a new tire on the rim, but Im allowing for different tire profiles also.
Should also fit a 190 if I choose to put one on there, aka I can get one cheap.
