Good job. Front wheel looks sharp the way you've got the scoot set up...

Those wheels look really good but it got to be bone jaring on a rough road or crossing a railroad track.

Looks great.. You can keep the rear rim set up as it is. Spent the money on something else. JMO.

If I may ask whats the size of the tire u have mounted on that 21'' ?
I ask becasue I have been looking for a 120/21 that is a White Wall and all I can find is the skinny 21''s (which I what I think you have). I want to keep the fat tire look and go with a 21 on my Road King (but also want to run a W.Wall as well)...

Looks good none the less...
