Might as well tack on an extra $750+/- for the matching rotor and pully to what ever rim you choose to get. I went with the stock size replacement, 17" by 6".

I have to agree with renegade. I like the chrome HD pulley cover for the money. And one of those links in a prev post showed the chrome stock wheel lookin pretty sweet.

I've got the chrome pulley cover and would like to eventually have my solid wheel chromed.

I just changed my pulley. I had the factory one with a chrome cover, but changed to the HD Reaper Pulley to match my front wheel. This way, when I change the rear wheel to match, I won't have to "cough up" the extra $359.00 for the pulley. I noticed in an above post a link to an eBay store that has chrome exchange rear wheels for $375.00.......STAY AWAY from this company. Chrome That Hog is the name of the store. Search this forum- I've read a lot of really bad reviews about them. Just a heads-up. I've never dealt with them personally, but I've seen tons of bad stuff. By the way- everyone's scooters are looking nice these days.Renegade- congrats on the chrome engine- I love mine. The chrome oil tank is a nice addition also. I decided not to do that one, but it definitely stands out on your black bike. Great work! 78 degrees here in Oklahoma tomorrow, but 45-50 mphwinds....don't think I'm going to do much riding.

Anyone have an issue with their Heavy breather wiggling? it's not the filter element but the chrome housing around the base of the filter. I wonder if that adhesive ring is just not enough.

renegade,
sorry cant help you out with the stock wheel, but who did you decide to order from? Will you be getting the same wheel you have now or the "solid" one ?

cheers.
