Just tried one of my PM Rage wheels for fit being that i've gone to a 3 1/2" wide rim......fits perfect and now fills the fender perfect with the 120 tire fitted. Will be waiting until winter to fit the rear, a lot more work involved with the softail to accommodate a drive side brake.

I got my Viking Bags on today. With some help from my neighbor, I relocated the lights and got the quick disconnect system on. I wish I had read the forum before buying, it would have kept me from buying so big. I do like the way they look though.

Replaced the rear axle covers and swapped the stock pads with Lyndal Zs.

Holy hell, man! Ouch is right! How'd it add up to that? Did you need bearings or something in addition?
Tire, tube, and rim strip from Dennis Kirk would be around $220. I have 'em shipped straight to my indy, who changes out a tire for $30 - $45.
