Installed New Wheels on 08 Fatboy
Did all the work myself except putting the tires on the rims.
2008 Fatboy now has Reaper rear wheel with new tire and a Stinger front wheel with new 130 x 18' tire. Got a great deal on the Stinger wheel ($220) and decided it looked close enough to the Reaper rear for me.
Lots of learning during this event. How to put on a rear wheel. How to put on a front wheel. How to install brake calipers. How to bleed front brake. How to shim rear brake disc. Eventually all was done with help from this web site as well as research on the internet.
Thanks! A couple of pictures below:
