Another shot. You can see my first version Jockey shift/foot clutch in this one. It looks much better now and cost less than $50.

Does anyone know what the specs are on that beautiful Green machine's front end? I like.

jackyl,
Here's what I used: 21" wheel from a wide Glide, upper and lower triple clamps, axle, axle spacers, 3/4" spacers and 3/4" longer Allen head bolts for mounting the fender, and washers (.090") to center the caliper over the rotor. Use other existing hardware from your bike (axle nut, triple clamp pinch bolts, head bearings and nut, fender nuts, forks).
Clayman,
I bought the parts from Zanotti'sback in June, after realizing the 21" wheel I got off eBay would only fit if I used the Wide Glide triple clamps. Also read post #16.
Here are the part numbers and prices:
46700-06 Upper Triple Clamp.....$ 65.75
46386-06 Lower Triple Clamp....$139.83
40923-06 Front Axle..................$ 28.39
40926-06 RH/FRT Spacer.............$ 4.58
40927-06 LH/FRT Spacer.............$ 4.58
Total..$243.13

RE: FXD with Wide Glide conversion?
Thanks for all the replies. Jimbo's bike is real close to the look I want (what year is that). Looks like it could be an 02. You've done a nice job--It looks like you have a tank lift. Did you run into any issues with the trees hitting your tank. I have a lift on mine also.
I gave a call to SeegerCycle.com today and talked about their kits. They were very helpful. I'm thinking of getting the 3 degree rake conversion kit that won't mess with my trail. Looking to spend a day or two installing that soon I hope.
