I just want to say, if you install one of these monsters on your bagger.......
You're bike is freakin' hideous!

YES!
Without me even seeing it...it's hideous!
They look terrible on these baggers.

Hard to comprehend unless you have 30" apes to go with the wheels.

+1 for 30" going the way of the 300 rear. But I do have to agree that the 23's look great.

lol i remember growing up and all the lights were the 'in' thing back then. funny how times change.

in fact, it was funny how you used to go to a rally or bar (as a kid for dinner) and the bike lot would just reek of oil and whatever other fluids happened to be leaking. times have changed, some for the better.

This debate is all well and good but I think the real question is where do you put the gas cap when refueling one of these big wheel customs?
