Finally got some mods done including 16" wheels with a 130/90 front and 180/65 rear. Big thanks to wag_oh_neer for answering my questions with the wheels.

Also swapped the rear fender for the 2013 fender and added the C&C Sport Tour Seat.

Picture of the bike as I got it:


With the new wheels:

 

Love those fat front wheels

 

Looks great! That's a mod I'd like to do some day.

 

Looks great. Good job.

 

Very nice! I have thought about swapping my rear wheel/tire for a 16 inch rear wheel/tire because those 17 inch rear tires are expensive. Not sure which 16 inch wheels/tires would be a direct swap without changing rotors or belt pulleys though.

 

I would also like to know what rear wheel you used/built. I re-laced a 16 X 5.00 rim from a modern Road King to my Dyna hub. Just wondering if you found something easier.

 

I did the same. Ordered the 16 x 5.00 rim from a 2009+ road king classic from surdyke. I ordered stainless spokes from HD Wheels and laced them to my hub. The front is a 16 x 3.00 I found on ebay since they are much more common. I wasn't able to find any 16 x 5.00 rims on ebay.

For those interested, the front fits right in there with the new rim/tire sizes. The only "modification" I did was add some lock washers to the fender bolts. This bought me another 1/8th inch between the end of the bolts and the tire. It wasn't making contact but it was a little closer than I liked it.

The rear set up got tight with the new wheel size. I was able to get everything together by leaving the rotor loose so I could get the caliper on. Once everything was in I went back and torqued the rotor bolts.

The front end is MUCH more stable with the 130 tire up front.

 

Looks good man, I'm glad you got it all worked out.

 

Looks Great!

 

It is tight putting the rear wheel on. I also left the rotor loose the first time but thereafter I leave the brake caliper disconnected from the bracket. Then for removal I just remove the brake caliper first.
