Hey, folks... this isn't spam and I'm not bird-dogging, but I saw this on eBay (my shopping source for a lot of VLX mods) and thought this a pretty cool mod. Maybe someone else on here is already offering them, but they're a set of chrome dish wheel covers that makes the rear tire look like it's mounted on a solid rim. Kinda cool, IMHO.

Like I said, just sharing, but if you want to check out the auction, it's item # 290364330732. Hope my posting the info here doesn't offend or break any rules. (Hey, I'm a noob, remember?) If so, let me know in the usual "Fuck Off" fashion.

Those are pretty cool would rather see them on a ace model though.

Factory specs for the rear tire on a Shadow ACE are 170/80-15, the same as a VLX. I believe the ACE is also a chain drive... might work for an ACE owner. :biker:

Piss off till you explain your relationship to working class choppers NOOB! That will help us decide if you are spamming or just trying to contribute.

Well, they're out of Trenton, NJ, and I'm just outside of Sacramento, CA. If I was actually working for them that'd be one hell of a long commute. So, no, I have no relationship with them, just an interest in sharing something I found cool (to me) with this on-line community. :idea2:

I'm not a guy with ulterior motives... okay, except for when I was trying to get into my ex-sister-in-law's pants...

FYI,
It just so happens that I now own that bike. Steve from Workingclass Choppers originally built it. He lives not too far from me and has a small custom shop in Trenton. I've known him a long time, and is a stand-up guy. The bike needs a little TLC these days, but looks pretty much the same as the photo, except for the Ape Hangers.

In any case, that rear wheel cover is available through Scoot Works. Here is a link to their website:

If you scroll down just a bit, you will see the covers offered for the VLX, Spirit and ACE.
