Bob has a 19, not a 21.
That's what I thought

This info is straight out of the manual. Could be a difference between the Aussie and American models. We do get chrome laced wheels as standard here on the FXDCI, I think that's an option on the US ?

Could be a misprint too.

I'll have a look at me mates Bob and see what size the tyre is.

sounds like a misprint bro...the bobs definitely have 19 inchers..I can't imagine why it would be any different in Australia. The wide glides have 21 inch front wheels.

Wanted a Night Train with the blacked-out engine & bobtail fender: Couldn't afford it.

OR

Wanted a Wide Glide with the ape handlebars & bobtail fender: Couldn't aford it.

Looked at the Bob with blacked-out engine and ape handlebars: Liked what I saw.
Looked at the price: Affordable.

Result: Bought one.

The only thing missing now is the bobtail fender.
