Same thing with me.... I installed the bars maybe a year ago, noticed the turn signals were off a bit, drove off and barely notice them anymore. I did my best and moving forward ->

Default Lowrider S

I met Tmac today at Colboch Harley Davidson. His was the first other Lowrider S I'd seen in upper East Tennessee. Had a great time meeting and talking to him. We'll definitely see more of each other at the dealership events this summer. Thanks for photo Tmac!

Default Lowrider S tire size

Will the Michelin 180/60/17 tire fit on my stock wheel on my 2017 FXDLS Lowrider S or is the 180/55/18 the widest tire that will go on my bike without modifications?

Finally did something to my 16 S. I put the TTS Master tune in and it woke the engine up more than any other tuner did on my other bikes.

Also I put in iridium plugs prior to the tune and for the first time ever on any bike there was a noticeable improvement.

uhh they're both 180's... Many people have put 180 tires under their low riders and other dynas with no trouble on the stock wheels.

only difference between the 180/60r17 and 180/55r18 is the wheel size and the 180/55 is a hair taller due to it using a larger wheel.

Hey, Wayne, Sorry for the slow reply. My computer was disabled and in the hospital for 26 days. It was nice meeting up with you guys also and talking with an actual Low Rider S owner. I'll see ya at the Bikini Contest in a few days. Yes, I plan on going with the 180 rear also. Only thing is there is hardly any wear on the Michelin 160/70 on there now. Mike

Has anyone made their wheels a brighter gold. I'm thinking about it because I'm slowly adding polished brass accents and the wheels are an odd color match. I'd like to see pictures if anyone has done this.
