will do i have v&h short shots on mine, love the sound. I want to do some ape hangers and wheels, nothing crazy just like 12 or 14in.

what made me join this forum is, I was googleing pics of lowered fatboys with apes and I came across WARGS bike on here (I think thats his name) but anyway, I found his bike, and thats kind of the look im goin for, low coool wheels and bars.

I need to find out what size wheels i can run on the bike without changing fenders and all that stuff.
