Hey guys, I'm looking at a spoke rear wheel on ebay. Description says its off a Dyna. No specific model listed. It's 16x3. 3/4" bearings. Which is the same as my FXST. The sale is for the wheel only. My question is, will my current rotor and belt pulley bolt directly to the new wheel? Is there anything else I will have to buy to get this to work properly? I'll be doing everything myself except for swapping the tire. Here's a pic of the wheel. Thanks for any help
I'm going to say it should work....as long as its a 2000+ style wheel. Here's my reasoning.....I had an 04 sportster and I replaced the stock mags with a set of stock spokes rims off an 02 FXDL. I was unhappy with the rear spokes so I replaced it with a solid wheel from an 01 Fatboy. My stock pulley, rotor and spacers all lined up the same on all 3 wheels. So this should confirm that the Dyna spokes are the same offset and bolt patterns as your stock wheel. Hope this wasn't too confusing.
sagebrush I believe is correct. Most Sportster and Dyna wheels from the same build series will interchange, I believe. I do have a stock laced 16 x 3 from an '04 Softail Standard available.

If I end up not winning this one on ebay in 3 days I'll definitely message you. How much do you think you'd want for it?
