Anyway, I ordered my 21" based on the stuff I read, seems to be effortless?? Let me know if I hafta do a bunch of mods but I think it's pretty straight forward.
Thanks for all the pics. I finally got around to looking at them. Great job to those who have converted.
For me though, after seeing the finished product I don't think I'll change out. If I could extend the front end & or change the rake I might consider an 18". I like the rear end look on my bike with my king & queen seat and ol school sissy bar. I will eventually chop the rear fender, get rid of the supports & pick the fender up w/a full lenght sissy bar.
What would look cool on the fronyt end would be a pair of twisted chrome forks for the springer
anybody that cares;
I put the 21/140 on the front of my crossbones. I noticed with the 14"apes and the additional height of the tire made for some heavy steering at low speeds. I purchased the Burly lowering kit for my springer and it lowered it 1.5" and now feels like the front end is evened out and low speeds are no problemo. All the front end components compliment each other. I don't think I would ever go back to a 16"..
anyone know where people are getting the 60 spoke dna or other brand wheels for the bones..what size 3.5 wide? I will need the black wheel with chrome spokes..just like the rear stokcer...
