Default Wide tire

I know that you don't need the kit, So how much did you guys pay for just the tire itself?

Screaming Eagle Dunlop tire from the dealer, that was a 180/60/17, was 198.xx with tax. Bought it today actually.

I ended up paying $150 for the SEII 180 and $50 for the install

Default RE: Wide tire

I was curious if that size would fit. Any of you guys that did it have some side by side before and after shots? I would love to do this at some point this summer.
Feel the need after spending the day riding behind my buddy and his Bigdog with the 300 tire.

2006 FXDBI before (stock) and after (SE 180) the 180 is just shy of an inch wider - it's usually the first thing other riders notice about my bike (most of those I ride w/ own Dynas or older FX Shovels).

How wide of a tire can you go on the 06 Dynas that came stock with the 160 tire? I think without going and looking that there is about 1/2 inch of clearance between the belt and the tire as it sits right now?

I bet if you change to chain final drive rather than belt you could get a wider tire on.
