I am just trying to find some ideas. I am new to the Harley Davidson community and trying to learn a lot with these posts. I got an e-mail back from Heartland and they have 3 kits that fit the Slim but are way out of my budget.

Good deal, man. Welcome to Harleys. I really think just putting a 150 back there is the way to go if you want some more rubber without a lot of fuss, and retain the vibe of the bike. You'll be pleased how much it fills out that fender and makes your Slim a bit more unique.

Apparently they do.
I inquired and just heard back and they forwarded these links to their Slim compatible kits:

E-Z 200 Night TrainŽ Wide Tire Conversion System

Two-Five-O Wide Tire Conversion System

200 Bobber Wide Tire Conversion System

250 Bobber Wide Tire Conversion System
