And for those who have inquired (or are curious)- I picked up the whole package from American Classic Motors (literally picked it up) for $575+tax ($604.50 total)
80 spoke Ultima Wheel, tire, rotors, bearings, mounted/balanced
The install took me about 15 minutes in my garage using a basic m/c jack
The price (or what I thought/expected) is what kept me from doing this for a long time. It matches up VERY well with the rear and in the hour that I had it out, I must've gotten 10 compliments
The steering is slightly quicker and the ride hasn't changed

Double check your clearance. My bud put a 21 on his Street Glide last year. When he pulled the front end apart to do sliders and cow bells, he discovered the paint was gone off the bottom side of the fender. Didn't blister the paint on the top side, but a little close for comfort. If you already opened up your rear fender mount holes, ignore my rambling.
No question that I got the tire up to normal temps. No drag whatsoever, however, as simple as it is to pull the wheel, I'll definitely check it. Thanks for the heads up.

No problem. He didn't notice it on his at all. Those tires swell at speed. I'd hate to see a thread about you repainting your fender. I read on here if you tape a 3/8 inch nut flat to your tire and spin it with no interference, you're good. You might wanna do a search bout it.

Keep in mind, diff years = diff fitment/clearance. Domestic's bike is a few years old.
