I heard on the LNSPLTBLVD channel they exported bikes to Japan and Ireland. I'm also overseas but don't really know the American marketplace, so don't know where to go. You would help me greatly if you could point me in the right direction.Thanks!

    Would a wider front tire keep a choper from chopping when cornering ? I had an old wide glyde that was redone and it felt like that front tire was goikg to come out from under me maybe it wss the spoked rims idk but i like the look of chopers but i dont like the chopping in relation to that front wheel wanting to skip down the road sideways
