Night Train rear end

Hello to everyone and thanks for a great forum! I am finally a new HD owner and my bike of choice is the Night Train. Saw it once and could never shake it from my head. I'll apologize if this has already been covered (but I did search first). I've looked at a lot of pictures of your bikes and see that most if not all have not modded the read tire...to a larger size. I may be off base here... but is that a correct observation? And if so, why or why not?

Anyway, glad to be here and looking forward to being around. Pictures to come...

Regards,

Jason

06 and up NT already comes with a 200mm rear tire... Are you talking about the "older" NT?

i wanted to go with a 250, but i think for my riding style(pretty agressive) and for the money($4000) ill be satisfied with the 200 rear!

RE: Night Train rear end

Yes, the '08 has a 200 on it stock...I'd like a little bigger. But it looks certain that I'll need a new swing arm and secondary help. For those of you that have made the 250 tire jump could you point me in the direction of parts and things to look out for? Thanks again for all the help!
