Default Springer front end

anyone put a springer front on a non springer bike? what all does it take i was looking on ebay and they range anywhere from $300 - $1800. I have always loved how a springer looked and was just wondering what it would take to change my bike over

You mean like this? [sm=smiley16.gif]


Money wise will depend on whether or not you want a stock HD front end or you buy an aftermarket brand. Figure on buying a headlight, wheel, rotor, caliper, and fender at least. You could easily spend 3000.00 to 3500.00 for everything.

cant i just re-use my stock front 21" wheel? I figured on head light and bars, how much different is the front fender? If worse comes to worse it would probably look good w/o one anyways

i got a stock front wheel offa 1993 springer ( i think) i could sell you for cheap

go with a DNA spinger, they are inexpensive and the quality is pretty good

if you go with a DNA you can prolly do the whole thing for about a grand

I wanted to do that to my '08 FatBoy, along with a bobber rear fender... then HD brought out the 'Bones..... now, it would look like I'm trying to copy them......
