We all think too much! I love my bike, but when paying 20K for a motorcycle it should already have at least the inner fairing paint matched and the front forks chromed. That would not cost HD anything substantial, and would save us a fortune after what we pay for these bikes. I love it, but it pisses me off that they don't finish it properly......
wth? i had replied earlier and my post is nowhere to be found. and i'm sure your comment about the inner fairing had nothing to do with wheels.....
anyway, the main point that i brought up in my other (nonexistant) reply was the question of whether the fatboy rear wheel would fit a 180 tire when the softail has a 200? in other words, how does the rim width compare?
I still see your reply....and there have been quite a few since then that cause my above off-topic rant, lol....
I am not sure about the FatBoy rim only because I know the different swingarms have different spacings, ect....the dimentions of the wheel could be the same, but what about the hub and brake rotors, ect?
