Very nice that the look I'm after., I have a Deluxe on 16" Carlini Gansta Apes at 1.25", the 1.5" were to wide for me. Now I'm thinking of doing the 21" wheel upgrade how do you like it. did it change the ride and handling much?

The 21" front hasn't changed the ride at all. It sits up higher in the front a little but I honestly love it.

Is it stock option (I mean 21" front) or have you replaced it? If replaced have you changed anything? I mean any fender risers or other modifications.

That is the stock fender. The 21" rim and tire fit fine with no rubbing. If you went to 23" then you would change the fender.

They are Kurakyn chrome covers. They were easy to install and look great. They don't make a chrome swing arm for my Deluxe.

Thanks, I see Kuraky is making some cover for my bike but not the swing arm cover.
