    You can buy wide arse kits to go on earlier softails...I think they start at around the 2g's mark without the wheel and tire...It has been discussed in here in length so if you do a search you should find plenty of info....i have a 2004 Fatboy seat on my 1995 FXSTC and it fits fine....I did try a 2008 standard seat and although it fitted it just didn't look right....

    ahh ok cool.

    i might just look into  getting a wheel that will fit mine as it is  a centerline or somthing.

    yer the fender is guna just fit the 130 wide wheel under it if i put a load on the back.

    its got a 16/130 in frount and back  i was looking to make my heratage look more like a fatboy.
