***Here we go again, hahaha. The great debate about which is the proper direction for the steer tires. Old Iron Habit and Jan Meermans where are you?
I have mine mounted the same way. The reasoning is they won't wear as fast if you road the machine often? Personally, I like it when they are all in the same direction...some suggested I install in other configurations. If I had diamond tread, it would not be period correct perhaps? Some asphalt people run modern machines with smooth tires. Machine pictured looks great regardless. JM
