Mike, you need spokes for a late model Sportster with a 21" wheel.

You may not have to. I just felt more comfortable lifting the fender using that big of a front tire. The fender lift was easy, just punched some new mounting holes.

Thanks jmpan, I'll have to see if I can find some polished SS ones, can't stand the "quality" of the factory spokes.

Here is a chart from V-twin Manufacturing which may help you with the number for the stainless spokes for your application.
