Default Would these wheels fit?

Would a 21" front wheel/tire off of a 2007 Sportster fit on my 1996 Super Glide? Thanks!

I'm not 100% sure but I don't think so. I think the axle size is different.

The hub width should be the same and work, but you probably do have a different axle size. May be as simple as a bearing swap to make it work for you. I have a brand new 21 with a brand new Avon tire on it for sale that would work for you. Just needs bearings installed. PM me if interested.

I would think you could change the bearings also. Probably have to measure to find the right ones though.

What type of wheel do you have for sale?

I'm relatively new to motorcycles, how in-depth would a "bearing swap" be? How much do you think a dealer would charge for something like this?

The reason I'm asking is because a guy local to me has a Sportster wheel/tire for sale for $100.

Nothing to the bearing swap. It's as simple as knocking the old bearings out and pressing in the new ones. A shop should charge no more than an hour for the labor of installing new bearings.
I'm asking 200 plus shipping for my wheel/tire combo....all brand new.
