Hi. I'm wondering if i could fit a front wheel from a Fatboy or Heritage Softail on my 02 Deuce? Has anyone gone with a wider rim & tyre (like this) on there Deuce or similar? Cheers.

 

Why not?...have a party

Considerations:
*Wheel and rotor spacing (may be the same, haven't confirmed)

*I would also keep an eye on those Deuce fender brackets...they may or may not clear that 130 tire...dunno (or are you going to change the fender too?)

But someone who has done this exactly may chime in (as you had asked).

 

I read from one member on the Deuce Owners Group (DOG) on Facebook the Fatboy & Heritage wheel fits, but i'm looking for more confirmation from a few people before going ahead with it.

I think the brackets might be close, but i was going to modify my current fender to clear the new wheel.

Hopefully someone on here has done this modification before. Anybody..........................????

 

I'm guessing you are in a very small minority wanting/doing this Exact Mod. I would also post in the Softail section (more viewers) if you haven't done so already.

 

I hesitated to say earlier although i thought it to be the case, 2000-2006 Deuce and Heritage...same part#...same hub. Pretty sure 2007 (last year Deuce, first year 25mm bearing) Deuce and Heritage are the same also respectively.

The wheel in this case has always been the easy part. I'd focus on the fender to tire situation.

good luck

 

Cool, thanks for that. I'll update you on my progress.

But since it's a bit further down the chain on my "to do list", don't hold your breath on the updates lol
