I've got an 08 Rocker C that I'm customizing and want to switch to the DNA inverted forks I've seen them in an article on a blue Rocker C in a car mag that chopper works did . I know DNA don't get the best rap but the price difference compared to the other brands is lot cheaper I suppose you get what you pay for though. My question is I know that the std caliper won't bolt up but I've already got a 21x3.25inch PM wheel for the front will I have any issue running the DNA forks are the axle sizes differen't ??, can I just change my bearings to suit and what about the spacing of the wheel?.
I'm just a little worried that maybe I should have held off on getting the wheels untill I knew which forks I'm running?.
Hey mate
Thanks for the advice it is much appreciated . I plan on changing brakes and I pretty much know what I'm up for in that regards my biggest issue is being able to use the front 21inch PM front wheel I already have .
FYI: Be aware of lock to lock limitations if deciding to use some brand inverted front ends on Rockers. FXCW's might be a Softail, but they're way different. For example, if using H-D accesory Softail front end, you will need to move tank back and/or do alter fork stops or top fork yoke will hit tank on full lock. Especially if you have tank lift kit fitted.
my mate is doin it now with DNA 62mm front end it has a 3/4 axle & you will need brakes from 84-99 evo he has bought PM calipers you will need a steering stop, I think he paid bout 95 bucks to that point is a piece of cake, but he hasn`t got his 23" wheel yet ,caliper looks to line up ok but because front end is wideglide you will need to fiddle with spacers, but fark it looks mint. I think if you can do this stuff your self with confidence it will be good but big dollars if you are willing to pay someone else good luck
