    You looking @ a magwheel or spokes? The reason I ask is that I'm gathering the bits to lace an '09 RK classic profile rim to the Deluxe hub. The RK rim is 5'' wide which should take 200 tyre easily. I'm looking @ the180 WW.

    Your lucky as your frame is the later model version, where the fender supports are bolted on to the frame, where my '07 supports are part of the frame, so a wider mud guard can be fitted by possibly using Fat-Boy fender supports. - Rob

    Let us know how things turn out Rod. BTW I think you'll find that your bike may have the same swing arm as the Fat Boy.- Rob
