Default 23" wheel

So I know it's counterproductive And frowned upon for a Dyna but I was looking to put a 23" Wheel up front. Was wondering if I would have to change anything To the front end Or would the 23 just go straight on there

plenty of threads on the topic... only issues outside of normal wheel/rotor spacing and axle/& hub size would be the potential fender height adjustment if you are keeping the fender. fun times

They're 21", but I have a mighty need for the Thunderbike FXDLS wheels!

that's a nice bike... It doesn't look like every other Dyna. I feel like every time I see a Dyna it has all the same mods.

That's most Harleys in general unfortunately. Everybody seems to have 14" t-bars and short shots.

The pedal is no where near the wheel, it's photo perspective. No matter how big the wheels gets on your bike, your foot will be no where near it.
