DynaJ, You installing blinkers on the struts? If not it might look better to shorten the struts a bit. Also what year is your bike?

Actually I ended up putting the 2010 set up off of a fatboy, the deluxe struts are in my garage going to figure out what I can use them for. Yes the tire is a 200mm

Recently I have been looking at going to a larger rear tire capability on my 2000 Heritage Springer. I found the following part numbers from the microfiches on Ronnie's site.
2000 Heritage 47008-00C
2000 Heritage Rear Fork 48746-07

2008 Heritage 47173-11BHP
2008 Heritage Fender support 59955-08 / 59954-08
2008 Heritage Rear Fork 47573-11BHP

2008 Crossbones 47173-11BHP
2008 Crossbones Fender support 59821-08 / 59824-08
2008 Crossbones Rear Fork 47573-11BHP

The 2008 Heritage and Crossbones both have 200mm rear tire capability. When it gets warmer later this week, I will look at my 2000 in the garage to see what's up, and the problems involved. I just want to know, as I will keep my 2000 unmolested.

Parts diagrams are one thing, but what would really help is a site with prints.

I have a 2000 FXSTS and want to install the stock (07) 200mm rear wheel and fender I just bought. Do you know if there is anything different between my 2000 FX springer and your 2005 FLS?
