What tire do you have on the front there? That's not a stock sorcher 2. What did you go with for the front?

​​​​​​​It is a Metzelers Marathon ME880 XL. its a rear tire. I mounted it in reverse to go on the front.

If you had to repin the connector.... where can I find the pin kit?

Those are breakout wheels right? what are all the specs for the front as I see it looks like you're still running a stock fatboy fender

Ah I see.
I was looking at the 150/70/18inch rear tires to put on front. Been wondering if anyone else has tried a 150/70 front.
