If you have, what does it handle like and what does it look like? Any pics would be appreciated Post #: 1 RE: FXST 16" front wheel - 5/20/2008 4:24:29 AM    blackness Posts: 93 Joined: 1/1/2008 Status: offline Here is a thread that talks about that. This guy did a 17" spoke but there is a link in the thread to a detailed install of a guy that did a 16" mag. I did a customized 16" Fatboy wheel on the front of mine. _____________________________ 07 Nightrain with a little of this and a little of that... ~Mike~ (in reply to eddyp) Post #: 2 RE: FXST 16" front wheel - 5/20/2008 4:36:48 AM    eddyp   Posts: 11 Joined: 2/23/2008 Status: offline   Blackness, thanks for that.

I trend to push it hard through corners and lean a alot, I am scrapping pipes/pegs now with the stock ride height on my 2002 FXST. Will this get worse? Do you have to lower the rear to regain handling? I am almost always 2 up, and do go on lenghty trips with the wife and T-Bags fully loaded.
