It is SUA. It flexes very well for a SUA with spring lift and the 35s fit under there nicely. Ive got three months rego so I'm gonna wheel it as much as I can. I need alternative transport while I do the SOA so I have to get my bike running again and that will take a while.

I need a little motivation to finish off the SOA axles which are collecting dust in the shed. I have the rear hubs machined, but need to get some caliper mount brackets made. Also need ARB for the front and some CVs, but I have the cash for those.

Then it's a case of getting the Southern Menace menace up to my place (if he can carry enough fuel) and swap the axles in. I'm aiming for October/November.

but the claws also don't fit well because the widest part of the tyre is the tip of the lugs at the very outer diameter. So depending on where you are tight on clearance the 34ish claws can be worse than some true 35" tyres.
my 37's clear easier than the 35 claws did for this reason. Very different shaped tyre..
