reduced reach passenger footboard mounts #50789-99B will fit freewheeler. wanted to get wifes right leg higher in air flow hoping not as hot. catalog says it won't fit trike or freewheeler but it fit perfect no modification needed. they raise foot about 2 1/4 inches. I guess someone is too busy to try this stuff at Harley.

Tell you what I just learned, while investigating why none of Harley's accessory wheels are available for the trike (except trike models they all state) isn't because they won't fit (non abs bearing and they all fit fine) but because they have not been tested on the trike. That was verified by my local dealer. Therefore, I've ordered a 17" chrome wheel to replace this skinny front tire on my Freewheeler, if this wheel is rated enough for a loaded Limited, I'm confident it's sturdy enough to handle my hot rod trike.......

Good choice on the 17inch wheel. you can now use the BT45 and new trike tire.
That is what I want to do, except I want it to match the free rear wheels.
The BT45 will wear great. I have read guys getting 30,000 miles on them. However if the trike tires wear like the 2 wheel touring bikes you'll get 30,000 any way.

Thank you for posting this. This will probably help someone else later on.

She must be really short. I had to drop ours a 1 inch from the lowest setting.
