Hi Guys,
A Google search is not proving that helpful, Could anyone direct me or put up some Factory photos. / Sales images for a 1991 Harley-Davidson 1340cc FXRS-CONV Low Rider Convertible please.
I ma be looking to buy a “purported” original one but the wheels don't look correct. When I check online at Ronnies these have spoked rims front and rear, though most online have an alloy rim.
Another thing to ask was there a frame change from FXR to Dyna on or around 1991.
Thanks,
I am UK based but trying to locate a spec sheet for 90/91 convertibles.
I guess I need to research the microfiche again to establish the cast wheel part numbers - trying to find them now could be difficult if not impossible I guess.
Thanks
Reword yer search. Try - 1991 Harley Davidson FXRS. I found it in 40 seconds. LOL please.
Thanks but if you read carefully I was trying to obtain some factory photos from 1990 /91. That said a combination of help in this forum and some digging around online I am convinced I have my answer. Having got the VIN and using SIP I have also confirmed the bike is a 1991 model year I have the colour scheme I think it Bright and Dark candy Ruby. It is very similar to the in our friends photo above though that is suggested to be a 1990 model year.
What threw me was the previous owner seems to have added a Softail custom rear wheel and a chrome spoked front.
Problem I have now is establishing (with some degree of confidence) the correct part numbers for the nine spoke alloys (front and rear) that the bike seems to have left the factory with so I can try to recover replacements. Is it possible that the factory may have “optioned” alternative wheels during that time?
The SIP reveals several wheel options and confirms a 9 spoke alloy for the front however not for the rear …. I’m baffled.
Perhaps you can help out?
Thanks

We're all here to help. Try not being so condescending.
TexasST was being helpful pointing you in the right direction.

There was nothing “condescending” about my response, I asked the chap to read carefully as I had possibly not been clear in my point.
You have made an elementary mistake of jumping in when somethings not quite so obvious- did you take any time to read the elaborated questions I asked for help with? Perhaps take a deep breath next time, and a small point, if you cant be helpful just scroll on by perhaps, it saves us all a load of grief.
The FXRS-CONV is shown with Silver 9-Spoke "Mags" in both the 1990 & 91 Sales Brochure. Although they could probably be equipped with Laced Spoke from factory.
You'll probably have to pick out the correct wheels from their visual/physical features instead of a part#. They'll use a Tapered Roller wheel bearing and have the correct size "Locator" (spigot) for the brake rotor ... years 1984-95. Earlier wheels will have a larger "Locator" for use with the smaller 10" rotors. They may list the wheel as up to 1999, but technically Harley changed to the 13-spoke in 1996.
FWIW, the sales brochure lists "bright and dark candy ruby" for both 90 & 91
