I recently purchased a 2016 wide glide leftover. While looking over the bike I noticed the front fender and wheel are not centered.i am being told by the moco that this is normal. What can I do to remedy the situation?

 

Don't look at the front fender and tire while riding?
When it's on the jiffy stand, leave the wheel canted to one side.

 

Moving the wheel is somewhat involved due to the brake(s).

I'd probably just get a chunk of wood and lever the fender over until it lines up....unless I planned on doing other front end work in the near future.

 

Thanks for the reply. Sorry it took so long to answer. Thought about bending fender but worried it would hurt the paint.

 

That's always a possibility...

 

Probably going to just leave it alone and ride.cant see it from the seat.

 

Do not bend the goddamn fender

Fender is part of the structural components - that give the front end it rigidity..., and..., sets the spacing to properly align the tire..., between the forks (which is what matters in the overall)

Wheel not centered - fix it..., or live with it - but don't half *** it

I'm not going to half *** anything with is why I wanted to hear from you guys what to do.i just wish harley would address the problem.make a bracket to center fender and tire.

I shouldn't have to fix anything. It's a brand new bike. Wondering why harley made it this way .

 

If you could post up a few images it would really help us see what's going on to determine the problem and then be able to offer some suggestions.

And as an FYI; my '13 Wide Glide has no wheel/fender offset, I'm curious what's going on with your Wide Glide...

 

Pics would help. Not for me, but for the smarter ones on the site, like some who have already answered you.
If it's a new leftover it's still under warranty. Have the dealer address the problem.
