Default Correct me if I F'd up
My DNA wheels are here tomorrow ....did I mess up ?

Front bearings are 25mm and rear are 3/4 ??

Is this right ?? Thats what KC told me when I ordered ? Looking at the OEM wheels the bearings look the same size .

My bike is a 04 FXST .... reading for the past few hrs there are different sizes

Can anyone put me at ease ?

Yes brother someone screwed up. Your 04 takes 3/4" bearings front and rear. I just ordered my wheels today and I am going to call KC Int to make sure they are sending me the right size bearings!

I think you will be ok with the 3.5 on the rear. It should fit. Glad to hear the brock at KC is taking care of you. Cool guy
