lower fork conversion?
First, what size forks to the following two bikes have?:
'02 Softail Standard (FXST)
'01 Electra Glide Standard (FLHT)
 \\;
Are they both 41MM?
 \\;
And if they are, can the lowers from the Electra fit the Softail? \\;
 \\;
My neighbor has some extra parts left over from putting on new wheels and parts up front. \\; I have always thought of putting a shorter, fatter front wheel and tire on my FXST and was thinking this might work. \\; I will need a few extra parts, i.e. 1" front axle, calipers, lines, etc., but I don't want to pursue this if the lowers will not even fit. \\; The width of the forks seems to be the same, but I don't have a micrometer to measure the forks and couldn't find any good specs online. \\; Also, I didn't know if the bagger forks are any different from the Softail.
 \\;
Sorry about the long message but thanks for reading.
