I have a '13 street bob with the stock rear 160 tire. Looking to upgrade to a wider tire in the future like a 180 or 200. Is this an easy conversion? Do I need to modify anything on my bike if I do go bigger? Thanks in advance!

 

Night Dragon 180/60/17 is a direct fit. I'm running one on my Super Glide. Its not a whole lot wider than the stock 160, but its meant to fit the stock rim.

 

180 easy, 200 not as easy but doable with a wider rim... have one on mine

 

I have a Michlen road pilot 3 - 180/55/17R on mine and fit really nice no mods was needed. PS. It was about 1 inch lower diameter as well kind a helped with the acceleration. RPM's raised about 4% at same MPH as was with stock tire.

 

I have Avon Cobra 190-60r-17 on rear. Great tire wet or dry and looks bad ***

 

Metzler 170 here.

 

This is what I'm running. Lol!! OOhhhhh, a darksider!!!

 

I will need a new rear tire soon, but not a new front for awhile. I would like to get away from the Harley Dunlop (going through them too fast). Is it ok for my tires to not match?

 

I have seen the 180 kit through Harley. Am I understanding this right you do NOT need this kit?

 

i've heard some say you can go to 200 on the stock rim with no adapters. that's what i was planning when i needed a new one, but now i'm questioning that. arkstreetbob, was that 190 a direct fit?
