Default How big can I go on an '02 Fatboy Rear tire?

Does anyone know if I can fit a 140 on the rear of my '02 Fatboy? Stock is a 130 but I would really like to go as big as I can with out modding it right now since I can't afford the wide tire mod kit just yet. Thanks in advance

A Harley-Davidson 150 tire is as big as you can go without modifying the swing arm. You will have to reverse the fender bolts on each side to have sufficient clearance. Cap the bolts with a chrome acorn nut and it will look fine. Been there, done that...looks great. This works for 00 to 03 Softails.
