Yep I went with a 200 when I got my new wheels and it fit no problem under the stock fender. Just had to mess a little with the spacers and pulley, but it all fits and for way less than any bigger. The 200 looks just right I think.

i like the idea of a 240, but far too much money for now.

Default 200 fits perfectly

I went with a 200 metz and a set of RC comp. "Slash" wheels. No spacer issues, bolted right up. Moved my signals to lower rear fender and reversed the rearmost fender bolt (threads outward) so I could mount my EZ brackets.

Thanks for that.


What is the largest tire you would recommend for a Dyna without upsetting the bikes balance and/or handling?
