    I need to get a new steering wheel as the leather is coming off my stock wheel. Its 20" and i'm thinking I might want a little smaller wheel. Anyone think that's a bad idea?

    I'll take any tips you guys have on a good wheel that won't break the bank.

    Try putting a bike steering wheel! You would get a lot of looks;)

    While you're changing your steering wheel, you should get rid of your seat, throttle, brake, etc....and windshield. Make it more like a joyride...lol
