Default Night train with springer front end

Howdy all i have done a search and didn't come up with a lot as i'm looking for some photos of forum members night trains with a springer front end . Also i have seen somewhere one with a wider front tyre is that possible with buying a diferent size springer front to fit that type of wheel or does it need a certain type of mod to accomadate this and finally what is the difference between the diferent sizes sold ie 2/4/6/8 etc in the springer fronts.

Many Thanks

Wayne

I have an 06 train with a HD springer front end on it. Not a real good picture but maybe you can get an idea of the look.

Thanks guys! That's an American Suspension Dragon Springer on my bike. The 2/4/6/8 is the amount in inches over stock length of an FX-style springer frontend. The FL springer is considered -2. I'm running a 140/70-21 on mine. The only thing you have to do to go wide is go with a wider rim (and probably drop the fender).
