need some advise please
Ok guys im fairly new to the softail forum as i was once in the dyna forum, very happy i graduated lol. Got myself a fatboy lo denim black a few months back and started to do some small mods. Flush black gas caps, painted the entire front end gloss black, painted dash gloss black, wild ones drag bars (painted gloss black also) RSD renthal grips, memphis batwing, and sissy bar yada yada yada. mostly small stuff. My question is ???? I want to change the wheels, looking to do a 21 front like the baggers do but are the front ends the same as the fatboy? i want a nice tight fender that hugs low behind the wheel. Im doing Roland sands The Judge wheels in contrast cut so im hoping to get a 3.5 front.. So can i achive this 21 front wheel swap or do i need differnt fork lowers? Man i know its alot of questions but im new to this softail stuff, please bare with me.. Thanks guys.

You can keep the same lowers. The fatboy front end is the same on all fatboys. Find a fender you like and get it painted, you might need to run some brackets to mount it. Let me hook you up with those PM wheels, I can get screaming deals on them for forum members. Let me know what fender you want and I can take care of you with that too. I really like the Judge wheels, so much in fact that when a couple of grand extra comes my way I just might get some. I love your bike, it looks great.

Putting a 21" wheel on the front of an FLST is not as uncommon as you might imagine.
There have been quite a few put on by guys here, just check out the different Softail pic threads and you'll find a few in there.
You could also use the search function, it should be able to find several threads on who and how they did it.
