stupid question on heritage...
Hey all, I'm wondering if one of you guys with a FLSTC can answer a question. How much clearance do you have between your rear fender and the tire. I'm talking along the side, not from the top of the tire up. I just happen to be doing a bit of scrubbing and noticed that on the right side, there is hardly a 1/8" between the tire and the fender and I'm scared that it's going to rub and damage the paint. Is this just how it's designed, or is my fender a little off?
What tire you running? I've got a 155/70/16 Pirelli Night Dragon on mine, and clay measuring for a wider tire I got 14mm. The wheel is in there straight, so maybe there is a difference in the tin punchouts...?
Anyway, I figured I can run a 165, and some others allready are. As I recall seeing, the later models went to a wider tire, and would have less clearance. Perhaps the OP bike has a 165?
