21 up front with a stock fender and a 18 in the back. I'm also running a Avon 160/60ZR18 rear tire. Lowered and it rides awesome.

Thanks 09Blue. I actually just put it on over the weekend. It's a "Up Yours Exhaust" by Sinister Industries. Or at least Sinister Industries sells it. There the only place that offers them.

Here's a few more pics of it

It is dual disc. The wheel is made by American Wire. It is a 40 spoke version.

yeah I had no idea the factory front fender would work. When I fist started looking at baggers I thought my first mod would be the stretched bags and wide rear fender. But now I am thinking 14" hangers and a 21" inch front rim

Looks good. What did you use to lower rear?
