Default Fatboys running 21" Fat Spokes
Just ordered a set of Diamond Cut fats spokes for my 2001 Fatboys with Whitewalls and matching rotors and pulley. I plan to run a Deluxe fender when I can find one and get it painted to match. Will I need to raise my fender to clear the wheel? Anyone have pics of a fat boy with a similar set up? I'm hoping it'll look good till I can swap the fender.

To run the stock fender and 21 wheel you will need an adaptor. For example http://store.fatbaggers.com/fbi-21fb.html. Just an example of one. Deluxe or heritage fender will work with no mods. There are some after market deluxe style fenders out there (check ebay). Would be nice to find with your matching paint.

I would love to pick up a deluxe/heritage fender. My problem is finding a painter that paint it and do the oem pin stripe for me.
