Default 1998 Heritage Classic
Hello, l have removed the hubcap permanently and would like to replace the old spacer with a straight style, the length is approx 51/64 or 8 tenths x 3/4.
Can any one recommend a chromed spacer or kit and supplier without buying oversize and machining/turning down?
Bike is a 1998 Heritage Classic.
Thank you kindly.

To Self,
The Fat Boy doesn't use a hub cap. measure and compare wheel width etc of that model, same vintage e.g 3/4 etc and compare.
This may be an option to buy a complete front axle kit that has the spacers you require.
Cheers Self.
