RE: 21" Front Wheel on Bagger?

Hey Zook, that last one does'nt really make much sense. The overall diameter of rim and tire are the same whether it be a 16, 18 or 21 inch rim. Dwell on that quizzle!

Okay I'll bite it on the 21....if your're right, the 18 is very close. Did you have to raise your fender for clearance, I sure as hell know I do not have an extra 1 1/2" of clearance under my fender, if that is what ya need to get a 21 to fit. More drizzle to dwell on!

You're probably right on your fender clearance, I just noticed you have a Street Stalker on the front. The 21 wouldn't look right with that fender anyway IMO. It would be easy enough to find out though. Measure from your front axle center to the bottom of your fender centerline. If you have at least 14" (28" overall height with 120/21 divided by 2) up in there, you could be in the game. You would want more than that for tire growth etc, but it will get you close.

The full touring fender combined with the 21 is what makes the look (again IMO). Tucked be the term.
