Default 06 road king classic
I'm sure this has been asked, just having a tough time finding what I'm looking for. I have a 06 road king classic, will the solid rims from the fat boy mount to my road king

Depends on the axle size. Plus, IIRC, the Fat Boy was a single disc, and the King is a dual disc. Not sure why you'd want to give up a third of your braking power, though.

Why would you want to give up half of your front braking power for one of the ugliest Wheels Harley has ever manufactured?

You need cast wheels from a touring bike.

You’ll likely find some at a swap meet.

No loss of braking if you just run them on the rear. And a hell of a lot easier to clean.

If you like the looks, go for it. I personally like the solid disk and think Harley ruined the Fatboy when they put holes in the wheels. I would do front and rear in chrome. As for the stopping power, there are tons of postings where riders removed one disk on a touring bike so as to show off their front rims.
