Harley Blade wheels
Does anyone know who makes these wheels? A couple of guys on this forum have them on 07 Fatboys and they look good to me. The MoCo price is a bit more than I want to pay. If I change wheels, I likely would only do the front, as I plan on basically hiding the rear wheel with bags.

RE: Harley Blade wheels
Chuckster, I am looking for a blade wheel or something similar. Les has exactly what I am looking for. George, the Zanotti price is like $912 - not too bad - thanks for the advice.

RE: Harley Blade wheels
Before you buy, make sure you shop www.hogpro.com
Shop EVERYBODY and check out every style.
Harley Chrome Forged wheels like the Blade and Revolver are top notch quality wheels, and arereadily in stock, but they are also very, very common. Stay away fromHD's cast wheels like the Thunderstar or Lightning Star. Cast wheels are cheap because they are notforged, and don't use Billet aluminum. They're weak, porous and do not polish up well.
Other simular priced wheel makers like RC Components, Renegade, Xtreme Machine, PM& Forge Tec will offer a better array of choices that your neighbor probably won't have. The only downside is thelead timeinvolved. I waited 10 weeks for my wheels, and I knew that when I ordered.
When you are spending that much money, make sure you are happy..
