Are you thinking of a 21" narrowglide wheel?

A narrowglide wheel will work, but you'll need custom whl/axle spacers and also caliper spacers or rotor spacer.

There's still other options if you don't mind breaking down a wheel and re-lacing/truing

If interested in that, you might check around your area for the cost of re-lacing/truing or just truing after you re-lace. Try metric shops or dirt bike shops

I asked my local Harley stealership about re lacing a spike wheel and they looked at my like I had three heads 😂. Tried a dirt bike shop locally and they said something about $400. Idk if that was for one wheel or two. I know the time involved in relacing and truing a wheel. I think I'm just going to sell both wheels and go about direction. At the end of the day, between changing the hub and re lacing, getting new tire and changing the 25mm bearings to 1", I can probably just buy some nice custom wheels.

Anyone looking for some new wide glide takeoffs??
😂

"I asked my local Harley stealership about re lacing a spike wheel and they looked at my like I had three heads 😂."

That's funny...

The $400 must be for two wheels

What year? 06-07?

so just so I understand. If I were to try and switch my stock front hub to the 21" hoop, would that work or would I need new spokes or a new hub? Ps I appreciate everyone's input. Not too knowledgeable on spoke wheels and hubs.

You'll need new spokes, but can re-use your hub.

What year is your bike?

You can get spokes sets here. Give them a call and tell them what you need.
