Don't do anything until you call Jeff or Jason at Coastal Moto and price out their wheel packages. It might narrow the gap on the harley wheels a little, and you get more variety to choose from.

All I am saying is they are not my style. it has nothing to do with the brand or anything. I can't find any I can like, I can get them for a a great price too. Nothing against Harley. The low maintenance factor would be nice but I am a fat spoked *****. LOL.

If I were to go to solid rims I would check out the RSD contrast cut stuff first. I really like that.

Coastal Moto was $3000 a set ouch! Still torn because I like many of the contrast black and machined wheels, but spokes seem more timeless. Would hate to drop money on a set and then they look outdated in two years whereas the spokes might still look good.

I doubt machined wheels will look outdated anytime soon... I do like the look of spokes but man I hated cleaning them when I had the stock front.. Can't imagine front and back, especially in black.. My new wheels are a breeze to clean...Just something to think about when making your decision

+1, I had reapers on my Deuce.

I hated the spokes on the duece, but love them on my deluxe. I think with the 21" you need a nicer rim
