I think I have found a set of spokes at dennis kirk. I will call them Monday and see if they can match the rim #. I wish there was a good indy close I would love to have them break the wheel down the 180 looks tight, I have no problem doing most tires but low profiles can be tricky. I am an hour away from any metric or Harley shop, and the local indy is who caused the current issues. so I guess tomorrow I will start taking it apart.

I would measure the space you have under your fender and put a narrow belt and sprocket on and put a 200 tire on the back. Also that fender is chopped real short so it looks like it sits real high. If the struts are spaced to fit a 8.5 inch wide fender then you can space them out to fit a 9 inch wide fender. The advantage to doing things that way allows you some wiggle room to center the fender over the tire.

Btw op your bike isn’t that far from looking like mine. I have a cross bones rear wheel about to get mounted to better match my front wheel. My fender is cut a little longer which makes it look lower

I like the way that looks. I want a little more fender to help with the option of a 2 up seat. what year is your bike?

My bike is a 2007 so it came with a 200 tire. a couple of guys on this forum have done similar fender builds using the cheap wcc fenders off ebay. it is a full fender so you can cut it however you want.

That might not be a cheap fender, it looks to me like my Heartland setup which starts around $3500! except I have the 200 kit. (Sorry I don't have a better picture of those fender rails but I lightened this so you could maybe see them better)

Those fender rails look very similar to these. What width is your fender? mine is an 8 1/2, and did the turn signal - taillights come with the kit? cause even the turn signals look the same.

Yeah, like I said, check out Heartland. Ironic thing, I talked to the owner today at an event in Agoura, CA.

that's cool and yes after checking their site I am 99.9% sure it is a heartland. The turn signals, tag bracket, seat, and all the little things match up. I am glad u caught that, gives me a lot of information on set up. thanks again very helpful
