Question Night Train wheels

I am looking at these wheels for my Night Train. They come with 3/4 or 1 inch bearing for the axle. They say you can change the bearing to fit the axle. What size axle does the night train have? What all would be involved with swapping out to these? Will the 18" x 5.5 be fine for the rear? and what is the widest tire I can put on that wheel for my bike?

Thanks Joey

Front & rear axle 25mm, get a copy of the HD catalog its handy for little bits of info like that. Youll need the right spacers front & rear, 18 x 5.5 is fine for the rear, just be leary of AMC, they like to stick on little "extra" charges after you win their auctions.

What kind of charges after you win bid we talking about? Thanks for the axle size. I was just looking at those wheels, I kinda like the style. It doesnt have to be from them I dont guess. Any one with issues from Revtech wheels? Thanks Joey

If your train is an '06 or newer, 200/50-18 would be the correct size.

almost right........'06 front and rear 3/4', in '07 the front is 25mm but the rear is 3/4". In '08 the rear went to 25mm as well.
