    Dude I just looked at a 2012 rk classic in Reno and it had a 21" dna mammoth front wheel. The freakin paint was bubbled right where you said. There was a kick ass lookin one on American Motorcycle Trading Company's yt vid and the salesman pointed out the same thing on a rkc with a 21" wheel and same exact bubbling. The salesman didn't say what it was from. Well done video. Many thanks.

    Just put a 21” on my 2003 Road King. This video saved me a lot of hassle and disappointment. Worked like a charm. Just have to remember to tilt that fender forward during future maintenance if I take it off.

    I have a 2005 Electra Glide, I noticed you didn’t change the brake calibers. I’ve been doing research and I was under the assumption I would have to go with brembo calibers going to 21inch wheel. Is that not true? It will save $$ if not..

  • @philipe7937
    @philipe7937 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    So you take off the fender to drill out the holes on the forks to a larger diameter to give it play and adjustability? Also the only reason I haven’t done it on my streetglide is because I’m afraid if I get a blow out when I’m fat from home that I won’t be able to get a replacement 21 inch tire at a nearby Harley dealership. Do they carry them?

    Great video and a perfect example, its common nowadays to run a 21" in the front even on a bagger such as your example, but its also a common topic of discussion regarding performance and stability of running a 21" front wheel and potentials for decreased performance and the feared death wobble. What are your thoughts on this?

I had a question about fender to tire spacing so I did like Robert said and called HCC customer service. Even though they still have the video on their website customer service (?) said they no longer support that or have any information about doing that swap?? So if you do this you are on your own.
