Default 21" front wheels

I just came out of the 'touring' section of this forum where a question was asked about 21" front wheels on baggers, and it caused me to want to know if anyone had seen a 21" front 16" rear combo on a Deluxe. Is it possible to do this or would it have to be a 21" front 18" rear? Just asking.............

That combo would be fine, but might look better with the 17 or 18 rear. JMHO

Default RE: 21" front wheels

Thanks for your reply: I think CHROME LADY runs a 21" on her bike but I don't know what the rear is. Samson Exhaust has a bike that was built for them that has a 21" Fat Daddy but I don't know the rear size. I think they look good on the baggers like g-money220's Road King when it was blue!!! A friend says the Deluxe was made to stay just like it is! I disagtee. I'd love to hear he and CNC have a conversation about that!!! Have a good one!
