I bought a set of Pirelli Night Dragons for my bike on friday off J&P . Drove over the border to pick them up and to my surprise there were 2 front tires and 1 rear waiting for me.. Not sure if it was a mistake on my end, but the way I read it I only paid for a front and rear.
This happen to anyone else?

Must be the season for new sneakers. Just bought a set of Michelin's this go-'round; we'll see how they do.
And whoever wrote the service manual obviously never installed a rear wheel on a lowered Train. You don't just "roll the wheel in and install the axle". Now that I put another jack under the rear wheel, it's a little easier, but it ain't no day at the beach.

Wheels are a pain In the rump. I found these in a 18x3.5/ 21x2.15 size and am debating picking them up for a pretty decent price. I haven't been able to talk to the dude really other than to find out he bought them for an 06 sporty. I have a 2000 NT. I'm aware there may be bearing size issues (maybe, not sure what size axles I have or the sporty does) but what else could end up being an issue with buying these for my bike? And how's everyone think they'll lol? I kinda dig em.

That was the other concern but I don't see why, especially on these wheels, they would be directional. Both the sporty and my bike use the same 11.5" rotors so that SHOULDN'T be an issue. I think I'll probably grab them while I'm back home in a couple weeks. Worst case scenario they won't work and I'll just flip 'em. But I'm pretty sure my only issue may be the axle sizes which isn't really that big of an issue at all.

Hub spacing for pulley and rotor should be the only issue. My 06 uses 3/4" axle and my magnum wheels used 25mm. I purchased the HD wheel bearing kit AND had to get a 3/8" pulley spacer from Vulcan works. The rotor side lined right up. Pulley side of the hubs are usually longer so it should work I would think.
