Any thoughts, concerns or ideas about changing my front 21" spoke wheel to a 19" cast wheel? Will it be a direct replacement or will I have to do anything special to accomplish this?

 

Forgot to add, this is on my 2004 XL1200C, not on the 08 Dyna...

 

I went from 21" spoked to 19" thunderstar on my '08 1200c. Just have to make note of axle size. You'll love the look and ride of the 19", a little more rubber for the road since
you will be running a taller and wider profile tire. wcurdog I noticed you're Dyna S.G.
is the 105 anniv. is it the copper blk paint scheme? My '08 1200c is the 105th which is also my first harley. One of these day's i will get around to post some pics.

 

I needed to change spacers and bearings; otherwise, the switch was simple.

 

Yes, my 08 was copper and black. I no longer have that bike. Now have the 04 Sportster 1200C

 

Why the change? if you don't mind my asking

 

The 19" wheel carries a wider tire and that provides much better handling and about 3 times the tire mileage, over the skinny 21".

04 1200C with a 19" Thunderstar:

 

I changed my 08 1200C to a 19" Mag. Easy switch, no mods required.

 

How will the original fender look? Are the 21' and the 19' fender any different? Will there be a bigger gap when the 19' is installed? I also want to go to a 19' front.

 

cHarley, I like that front wheel, what make is it? was that an easy swop over?
cheers
