They do! It's a Wide Glide , just add a big tier kit and you at about the same price as the BO

Don't care for it chopped off that much and the huge gap from the tire to the fender. Would have to put a shotgun shock on it so it would look cool.

And what about those much slimmer tires compared to BO? I read Fat tires here are the PROs for BO. Thus that mean slimmer tire is less desirable?
