It seems the big front wheel is the new fad. I am not a fan of most of them but I did see a couple of Road Glides that actually look decent. Maybe it's the way the shark nose and the big wheel (not gigantic) makes the motorcycle lines flow.

 

Well...

That one actually looks like "Big Wheel" to me. Like the kind I used to ride when I was 3.

Maybe it's cuz the cat sitting on it in the first pic looks small relative to the bike. Not sure.

Cool scoot though. Just IMHO it's doesn't need a huge 22 or whatever to look cool. Looks coolest with a stock wheel, to my old eye.

 

I have seen a few with 30" front wheels and no way the headlight could be effective, don't care how much rake the bike had. Most of them have been Road Glides. Look awesome IMO and maybe they look differently when riding with an air ride suspension. IDK....

 

I think if you asked them everyone of them would say they indeed owned a big wheel as a kid....not for me but hey if they like it so be it!

 

Maybe we should drop the pretense of owning Harleys and just get back to our roots with one of these:

 

I much prefer the bigger wheels on the Road Glide than the street glide. The way the shark looks is much more conducive to the bigger wheels.

 

Wheelie bars and I'm sold.

 

Looks cool for a show bike but kind of pointless for everyday use.

 

I am an odd man out I guess. I can't stand them. I love the new wheel on the Limited, Classic & Road King. Can't stand the bigger one on the new Street Glide. Wouldn't stop me from buying the Street Glide, but just like on autos/truck, I don't like looking like I'm riding on rims.

 

21" is big wheel enough of me. What anyone else does is up to them...but don't blame me if I look at it and chuckle.
