First I stopped by Harbor Freight and picked up the lift table p/n 91764 and the front tire stand p/n 96349 since I plan on doing the 200mm tire over the winter this table will come in handy.
The lift table is really not a bad peice at all, just take the front wheel stop and vice that comes with it and throw it in the trash and bolt on the front tire stand I listed..much better at holding the bike.
This is what I did with the rear brake light and blinkers. Cut off the plate bracket and painted everything black.
The bike on the table with the lights bolted back up. Looks good for now untill I hack the rear fender and get the 200mm tire under it.
This is the 2009 Cross Bones rim Iam using to do the 200mm tire on the Street Bob. This is a project that will happen in a month or so.
I've been wanting that table for a while, did you wait for the coupons? I thought about just building my own wheel chock but that one looks pretty decent, what was the price if you don't mind me asking?
Looking forward to the CB wheel mod, my pops is wanting a 200mm on his WG and I mentioned hearing that people are using those take off wheels to do it, be interesting to see what you need to do it. Thanks for sharing.
hey awesome looking bike, I have an 04 fxd with the aluminum mag wheels and im looking for spoked wheels like the ones you have. so when you do end up getting the other wheels pm me and maybe we can work something out if your wanting to sell them.
Thanks,
Your bike has different size axels than his bike so the wheels wouldnt work on your bike without changing the bearings.

I had an 06' sporty and a buddy of mine had a early 2000's model I believe, we swap rear wheels. He had spokes and I had mag, we swapped. Because of the different axel sizes on the two rims I had to bore out the spoked rim to fit the 1" axel into the rim, we both had to get new bearings put in. He need to go down size to 3/4" and I needed to go up to 1". After all said and done everything worked great.
Have to ask the dumb girl question. How did you paint those signals and tail light? You did a great job on them. I hope you're planning on doing the front sigs, too.
Your right, I was thinking of installing a small LED white light on the top of the plate to shed some light on it.
Here is another suggestion, it is very bright. My tail light burned out on way to work, and my buddy about half mile plus back could see it now problem. I just double side taped it to plate frame, has worked flawlessly for 2 plus seasons.
