Stock fender on a 2007 Roadking with a 23 x 3.5" rim and a 130/60-23 Avon Cobra tire.

Fender brackets raise stock fender just enough for the tire to fit in the stock front fender


We have fender brackets that will raise your stock fender enough to fit a 23" for those that don't want to put a new fender on. You will have to check for fender to crash bar/triple tree clearance as the fender gets really close to those parts and could bottom out. On the bikes we have done here we added an extra ounce of fork oil in each leg and went with a heavy duty fork oil. This isn't for everybody but it is an option for those that love the 23" wheels but don't want to change their front fender

 

I like it

 

got a picture of the full bike? any chance of damage over speed bumps or other bumps in the road? would be a lot cheaper alternative than raking front end

 

On a side note, nice wheel. Who makes it?

 

I've seen several in person and they all look like they're waiting for the launch. Other than raking the front end, not sure how to avoid that?

 

Sorry I don't have any images of the full bike but we are putting a 23" on our shop 2010 streetglide so I will make sure to take full pics of that bike once it is done. We are not going to rake our streetglide so once we get some more miles on it with the 23" I will have a review up. The stock fender does end up closer to the triple trees/crash bar then a typically 23" wrap around style fender so modifications to the front forks will have to be made to prevent the fender from bumping. I already dented our original fender testing it out before we stiffen up the front end so we will experiment with it. That wheel is our Hogpro "Deviate" wheel by the way.

 

I'm interested in seeing the final version....

 

Really like the look of a 23 but that stock fender looks out of place. The tire and wheel make the fender look tiny.

 

Like the look but I think the 21" is the max for the stock fender as far as radius and diameters are concerned. Looks a little disportionate with the differing circumfences. I think we need a new fender for the 23"s JMHO. But I love my Hogpro wheels on mine they look like they grew there thank you Phil!!!!!!!!!!

 

Not a fan. I have the 18/18 set up and it's already a bit harsher of a ride on the bumps / potholes over stock. Can't imagine what a 23" would feel like on a pothole!!! Nada, no way, not a chance for me - just sayin'.
