Hello old chap, from South of the border. Welcome to HDF. Not easy to answer your query to be frank. Sportster fork legs are closer together than a Dyna, so the spindle (our North American friends call them axles!) will be shorter. You don't mention model year for your bike, or for the wider yokes or what they are off. Sportsters over the years have had three different sizes of wheel bearings, from 3/4" to 1" and currently 25mm.

You may find an on-line parts website helpful, if you know the dates. I also suggest you post in the dedicated Sportster section, where our experts reside, but give them more info to work on - the Sportster is over 50 years old!
