Default 170 on 2007 SC road king

Has anyone happened to see the 2007 SC road king? They're coming stock with a 170 rear tire. I was just wondering what they changed and if it's possible to put on a earlier RK?

Like anything else these will probably be stock on all 08's or 09's (touring).

CVO King has with 18" front/17" rear. 160x18 will work on a bagger....200 will fit with a conversion kit...anything is possible!

HD is just keeping up with the trend of other Moco's with wider rear tires.

I wonder if I could get the Dyna 17" rear (160 btw) and 19" front on my SG. Reason I'm asking is cause I have an extra set...
Might be a cool winter project...

I was thinking that, but dont the baggers have 1" axels? Guess I could press in some smaller bearings if that was a problem.

Why yes...My fat **** sits on it.

It is a 170mm tire.

BUT, they also have a wider rear fender as well compared to a regular RK.

I'll have to get a better pic of my rear end.

docpoof, what size (width) belt does your SE RK have? I haven't been able to see one in person yet to look. Is it the same width as the 200mm softails? I have a 180mm tire on my 2000 flhtc, with stock swingarm, but do have a wider fender. I have the 1 1/8" belt and pulley. Thinking I could get maybe a 200 in there with a narrower belt. Thanks!
Jerry
