What is the difference between a MH 90-21 and a 90/90H21? Also,what is the stock front wheel size for a Wideglide? I'm doing a wideglide conversion,and replacing the stock 19" with a 21"

 

I'm not the expert, but I'll tell you what I think.

MH90 and 80/90 are equivalent size and this is the size on my 2007 WG (stock). For comparison, Avon lists the width on their MH90 and 80/90 at 3.3" wide and 27.1" diameter. The 90/90 shows 3.7" wide and 27.6" diameter.

Stock front wheel on my 2007 is 21" and 2.15" wide.

If I don't have it quite right, I'll let someone who knows better set me straight.

If that info is wrong, then my knowledge is also flawed.

When I got new rubber for my WG, I went with a 90/90/21 on the front. Many people here did the same thing and I just followed suite.

 

You can also go wider...like I did on my '97 WG. Running a 21" x 3.25" wheel (Hogpro Scalpel) with a 120/70 tire (Metzler ME880).

 

I'll most likely go with the 90/90h-21,(ME880). I also want to get a twisted spoke wheel,(have one on the back). Which is better,stainless or chrome? Where can I get a quality wheel at a reasonable price? I checked E-Bay,no luck. I'm looking for a 40 spoke wheel.

 

Right on ...same here . You'll like the 90/90/21 a little better than the 80/90 . You will absolutely notice a better handling bike .

 

yeah I just changed to a 90/90... wider and better handling.

 

how about a fat bob wheel, with a wide glide front, modifying a dyna low rider. keeping the same forks of my 2006 Lowrider. I'm not sure if its feesable, i'm thinking it would ride smoother and look good.

 

edit: Sorry, just saw the date of the post.

 

When you went with the 21x3.5, were you still able to use the stock fender up front?
