I'm with you, Golfinds. I'd swear mine's different also. I just did a 19" chrome Enforcer on my Ultra. It's not bad though. I also have Harley Premium shocks on the rear, and maybe they're just not dialed in right yet. That's the only other thing I can think of.

I recently went with a 19" agitator from an 18" as well and at first it rode different. I waited a couple weeks and put it back on the lift and loosened the retainer bracket and the the main axle bolt and re-tightened everything making sure I tightened the axle bolt first and then the retaining bracket while pushing the legs together and its been fine since that. I believe when I first installed I watched a video on youtube and the guy tightened the retaining bracket first, so that's what I did. When I started troubleshooting I looked in my manual an saw that I had done the in-correct sequence.
I would try to loosen everything and re-tighten and see if that helps?

Low profile tires/rims are designed for race tracks, not the real roads most of us ride. What size tire are you running?

the reason they don't is because the 16'', 17'', 18'' and 19'' wheel/tire combos all have the same overall diameter. so it doesn't change any of the suspension geometry or sheet metal requirements.
the op has a '13 street glide, that comes with an 18'' wheel/tire. maybe it's just me, but when i changed my 18'' out for a 19'' combo, i could feel absolutely no difference.
