I just purchased a HD Slotted 6 spoke 21"wheel for my 04 Softail standard. My bike currently has the factory OEM laced 21" wheel. What do I need to buy for the NEW wheel to fit my bike?
I already bought the bearings, but doe I need the internal spacer? And can I use the original spacers on each size? Can I put a floating rotor on the bike without changing my caliper?
Larry- If you bought a wheel installation kit to fit your bike, it should have everything that you need. Sorry, but I don't know anything about the floating rotor. Good luck- post pics when you're done.
