That's an Avon M23 200 wide. Got the full wide drive kit on there allowing for the full size belt.

Thanks man, I got them from Hill Country Custom Cycles 16" rise 1" thick along with all the cables. So far I love them but I am waiting for the roads to clear up to actually test them out. Gotta keep myself busy till then i guess.

Heres a photo of my 1991 springer .I bought this bike off the insurance after it had been in a fire .I took all the chrome parts off,and the painted parts ,and wheels ,and wiring ,I forget what I didn't take off it ...LOL Then with new chrome ,paint , sadle bags ,crash bar ,fat fender ,andrews low-mid RPM cam ,seattires, and other goodies I put it back together ,and been riding it ever since ..I bought it in 1995 .The photo is from 2006 .
I'm building a back to original 1959 FLH,that I'm thinking of keeping for my main ride ,but they are such clumsy things I might stay with my springer ..The more memories you get ,the harder it is to retire a bike .Sorta the oposite of a wife.LOL
