Default Dual disc fxdwg

I am currently running a 16" Fat Bob wheel with Fat Bob lowers and PM calipers on my '13 wide glide and want to change back to a 21" wheel. I have a Wheel Wright dual disc 21"x 3.5" wheel with a metzger ME880 130/70 coming. Will a stock Fat Bob fender work? If not, what fender will fit? No fender is not an option. Any ideas?

I could be wrong, but I believe the front fender on a Street Bob is actually curved for a 21" wheel. I couldn't stand the gap I had between my fender and tire, so I dropped my fender by drilling new mounting holes. I would look into a Street Bob fender. Mine is a 2011.

I would love to post some pics! Unfortunately, the bike and trailer are currently snow bound. Give me a month or so and I will revive this thread with pics. If you are interested in doing this mod, you will have to lower your jiffy stand. The bike stands all but straight up with a 16" wheel. I was scared that a breeze would tip it over!
