Hey folks...I changed out the 21" front wheel on my 2010 Wideglide for a wider 18" wheel...I would like to lift it up a bit in the front and the only way I can see to do this is with longer fork tubes...Can anyone tell me the length of the standard tubes on a 2010 WideGlide...
If there is an easier way to lift the front end up an inch or so post that up also...

Cheers...Sparra

 

well your forks compress when you sit on the bike. so stiffer springs/heavier oil will "lift" the front end up some.

 

Thanks for the reply...I have Ricor Intiminators and 10w oil,don't really want it any harsher...I think 2" over tubes is the way to go but can't seem to find the stock length...I could pull them apart and measure them or maybe ring a dealer but I thought I would ask on here...

Cheers...Sparra

 

BKRider.com sells new tubes; maybe a call to them will find someone who knows the stock length.

 

According to this chart Wide Glide fork tubes are 27.9", other Dynas are 25.5"

You should post a picture of your bike, I'm curious to see what a 18" front wheel looks like on a Wide Glide.

 

Thanks for the reply's,the link above answers my question...I put Switch back wheels on my bike...
There are pictures in here somewhere...

Cheers...Sparra

 

Me too. That's one of the things I like about the WG. I like the way they handle with that 60s chopper look

 

So...where 'dem pics?
