I have a question for you all with 21" fronts. I talked to an indy about installing new wheels on my 2011 RK. He insisted that a 21" will rub the stock fender. When I questioned him on it, he basically lost his cool and hung up on me. In the meantime I see all these great bikes with stock fenders. is there fender rub that needs to be resolved? thanks!

You can definitely use your stock fender. Drill out the rear two mounting holes with a 3/8" bit.

Shoot me an email and I can send you some detailed instructions.

Thank you

I'm using a 21" with the stock fender with no problems. Small mod to the rear fender holes and done.
