Those would look hot on a black/chrome 2021. I have the slots on my '22 or I would ask if they were up for sale.

yes on a Black and chrome they would look amazing. If you’re asking if they are for sale yes they are, front and rear with tires, rotors, pulley and all bearings, ready for a direct swap. Pm if you’re interested.

if I had an earlier bike, i would jump at that. I love the '22 wheels with the slots. But thanks anyway. I appreciate the offer.

I know you can order the right standoff and use it in place of the left standoff and plate bracket, but I am wondering if you can use 2 short left standoffs for a clean and tight install. I was going to go with mini kodlin neowise, but I ride in a group and think they may be too easy to miss. Custom Dynamics inserts with short stalks would be acceptable.

I think the spoked wheels are very nice but for me the stock wheels are just the "Fat" in the Boy and I think they belong together. Fortunately we are not all of the same idea because otherwise it would become monotonous on the road

Unfortunately sold those parts out a while back, but from what I remember the bases on both lights are the same. The Kodlin Neowise are a great substitute, it’s what I’m using on the new fender. I’ve used the Kellerman Atto in the stock fender and even being that small they are super bright.
