I am converting the 39mm narrow glide forks on my 02' Lowrider to an 06' 49mm Mid glide forks.

Since I already have a nice narrow glide front wheel, is there any Wheel spacer set available to use my narrow glide front wheel in a mid glide fork setup?

Or do I just have to buck up and buy an 06'-07' mid glide front wheel?

Thanks.

 

Not sure, as I never had a narrow glide, but I am pretty sure the wheels are the same. Just get a set of spacers for a Street Bob (about $8). The 49mm fork lowers will only accept a 1 inch (2006-07) or 25mm (2008-present) axle. You will also need new wheel bearings to match your axle. In summary you need:
-mid-glide triple trees
-49mm forks with lowers for FXD (not FXDWG or FXDF)
-wheel spacers for FXDB (or C)
-1 inch axle and wheel bearing
OR
-25mm axle and wheel bearings

 

Thank you AFMM3

But, Ive been getting mixed search results.. Not sure if the narrow glide hub is the same size as the mid glide hub??

 

I did the same to my 02 superglide, but machined my own spacers. The front wheel will fit, with new 1" bearings, but you will have to machine the hub to accept a 1.25" O.D bearing spacer(1" I.D.), right now you have 1" O.D. spacer(.75 I.D.). Also space out the rotor as the hub is narrower than midglide hubs

 

Thank you jakeryder, finally a difinitive answer,lol.

I'd love to see pics of your bike, what did you do with your dash indicator lights?

 

I just remembered that I have a 19 inch chrome wheel with 25mm bearings in it. I also have a 25mm axle. These were removed from the bike at about the 2k mile point. Send a PM in you would like to buy. I also have mid-glide trees (I better start cleaning out my parts shelf!) from the 2008 Street Bob in my signature picture.

 

you'll probably need a spacers for you brake rotor and fender as well

 

I made a simple bracket that went between the risers and top tree to mount the gauges and lights but that was after this pic was taken, bike is sold now so unable to get pics of that
