Anyone ever convert a dirt bike into a road bike?

My 1969 Kawi G3TR started as a dual sport. It ended up like this:

Now there is another thing I want to build.

What tires are those?

Well, not to be a broken record, if you decide to convert a dirt bike for street use hit me up for the headlights and turn signal mounts. I am starting a motorcycle accessories company that is starting with universal mounts for lights.

My guess - just something to keep crap from falling directly into the carb.

Skinko 244 tires. 3.5x18 and 4.1x18.

My latest project is running them in 3x18 sizes on this (still doing mockup, so it is just primered at this point):

C105 frame, some Yamaha YG front forks, C110 engine built with cast iron head, and 2.15x18 AL wheels with custom length spokes.

Not sure if this furthers the discussion, but is an option depending on how fast...or slow you plan to roll.
