The '07 Deuce did NOT come with a 200 rear tire, nor did it come with a Fat Boy wheel. The Deuce does have a solid rear wheel, but it's different than the Fat Boy's, and it came stock with a 160 rear tire. Also, stock Harleys don't come with Metzeler tires.... they all use Dunlops.

The seller is either clueless as to what he's selling, he didn't buy it from the dealer, or he's lying.

Deuce wheel:


Fat Boy wheel:

I stand corrected. I know a bunch of softails came with the 200 rear in 07, i didnt realize the duece did not. I know they dont come with metzlers but with dunlops, and i didnt even see the part about the faboy rear wheel. I need to read more carefully and when im sober.
