Needed 2 small parts for Peel and other vendors didn't answer phone so started at top of my ancient vendor list till TC answered and we got to talking for a hour as he couldn't stop asking me questions about Peel features and new fangled suppliers like Maney and JSM. He seemed to understand my dilema on over powered light Peel traction so reviewed me on fitting a chopper style wide 16" rim saying chain barely chews side of tire no problemo, YEA! Already have Harley billet wheel and new street tire on hand.

Trixie Combat is yellow and I may have a yellar stripe down my back but Peel frame is bone white with skybluepink hues + scattering of sparkle butterfly's and little stars. Tank/fender purple or green depending on view angle. All cheap to reapply in case 16" tires fail me.

TC's 850 get cross continent ridden and he fitted a big fat squaty choperish 16" wheel so after no response last here year asking about issues of mounting a 16" - finally got it from TC. TC is not 'puter equipped so not up on hardly anything or who who of current Norton race tech. This was like my 5th conversation with TC since '99 and by far the longest with mostly me talking to answer his questions as only needed two bushes this time. He does business like I do, send stuff out with invoice inside and wait for cash or check back, not credit card set up. At some point will have to find out if Peel likes 16" on pavement too.
