Anyone put a 21" wheel from a softail under a bagger?
I know HD offers some 21" wheels with a bolt pattern on each side of the wheel (for brake rotors?).
Example: Chrome Slotted Six-Spoke Wheel
Wasn't sure if the hub width isn't the same for a bagger? For eample, if a hub width on a bagger 16" wheel is 4.5 inches and a softail is 4.0 inches (I didn't measure actual sizes yet), then the brake rotors wouldn't line up with the calipers on your bagger's forks. A possibility may be to make some hub adapters?
Anyone look into this or try this?

HD 21" rims are NOT designed for bagger fitment[sm=badidea.gif]...aftermarket is the ONLY choice!
Take a good look at the front wheel on your wife's Springer, way too narrow!
