Front Hub Width
I am looking for a wheel for a bike build I have going on but am having a hard time figuring out which wheel it is I need.
I am looking for a 19x2.5 40 spoke wheel with a 5in wide hub. I read on another forum that there are narrow glide hubs that are 5in wide.
What I am trying to figure out is which years/model has this hub that seems impossible to find. I've heard 2006 or later, but this is not true, as I got a narrow glide wheel off a Sportster that's hub measured around 4 3/4.
So what I am wondering now is, is it a 2006 or later Dyna model that has the 5in wide hub?
I am having one hell of a time finding one, can't even locate those years of wheels on ebay.
Thanks in advance for any information!

Hey blueangel73,
This wheel is going in between a GSXR 1000 setup.
This is why I am having difficulty finding out which wheel it is that I am looking for.
I found this last night "2006-2015 Harley Davidson Dyna Super Glide, Low Rider, Street Bob, Super Glide Custom" I think they all run the 49mm forks?
I am finding it hard to find hub width info about any setup really.

Yeah that's a 2006-later Dyna Mid-glide Hub. 2006-2007 came with 1" ID x 21mm wide bearings and 2008-later had 25mm ID x 15mm wide bearings. The bearing bore depths are different.
It comes from any model dyna, except the FXDWG "Wide Glide"

Also, Dyna hasn't used a narrow glide front end for a long time, as far as I know 06 and newer are either the mid-glide (Super Glide, Street Bob, and Low Rider) and the Wide-Glide (Fat Bob with no rake and Wide Glide with the +3 rake). The only bikes running the Narrow-Glide trees are the Sportsters.

Are you using the GSXR trees also? Or are you installing the GSXR legs into a set of HD trees?

Maybe people referring to the Dyna wheels as a Narrow-Glide is what has thrown me in the wrong direction.
