FLHCS rear 200mm tire
Hello everyone,
Looking to get back in the road and the 2022+ Heritage Classic 114 got my eye.
Had a 2017 Fatboy that i sold and love the 200mm tire and which I can have it in the new bike, and no, not a fan of a new Fatboy style
Been looking around in the internet and can not find anyone that has done this nor any custom parts that offers this config keeping the long fender with the same light and holds a 200 tire
Is this possible at all?
Thank you,

you want a HERITAGE with a 200 rear ?
the fatboy are a 250.
that said, a 200 will go on a bike with the 180, it just gets tight.
if you have a 150 rear, then you can look at the struts and piece needed to widen the rear.

Why? It's a HERITAGE after all. Why would anyone want a big fat tire on a bike like that? Seems it would look totally out of place/wrong on a bike like that - assuming it could even be fitted. How would it be crammed under the full fender? Even if it could be crammed under there the fender would obscure it. So, what would be the point? Plus, it's likely to take a great handling bike and make it handle like ****.
I thought they had the Fat Boy and Breakout to cater to this fad. One might have thought that maybe the big fat tire fad had started to die away. Perhaps it's still sticking around... kinda like the blacked-out color schemes.
