I am thinking of switching the wheels on my Fatboy. I like the look of the Reaper wheel, but I'd like to know what the weight on them are. I'd also like to know what the weight of my stock Fatboy wheels are, come to think of it. Does anyone know where I can find the specs on the Harley wheels? I don't see weights listed in their parts catalog, and have not been able to find them on their website either.
Can anyone think of any reasons why they would think that the Reaper wheel would not be a good choice for my Fatboy? Of course everyone has different tastes in style, and I'm not really concerned with that. I am looking more for information on whether or not the Reaper wheel might affect handling or ride in a negative way?...
