how much does a 21" wheel and 120/70r21 raise the front of a softail or any other bike for that matter? i measured my bike afte the 21" wheel was on it and i measured my friends heritage and i was 2" higher ground to front axel

bad choice of words i guess. i am looking for what other people got to maybe get an average

 

not trying to be a smart-*** here... but didnt you just answer your own question?

 

1) It depends on what size wheel and tire you removed.
2) It will raise the axle 1/2 the difference between the old wheels overall diameter and the new wheels. The 21" wheel and tire combination I selected is 2-1/2" taller than the 16" combination I removed. That means it will raise my axle 1-1/4". But then I lowered my front end as well so it's pretty much level.
