Don't know if this will help, 120/70 21 on the left, stock 90 -21 on right looks like maybe a 1/4 inch difference I used my 90 to mock the fender up, and the 120 fit fine after the paint dried! just the wrong offset aarrgh!
I used a 1/2 inch hose taped to the tire, you can see a small space in the fender to tire clearence, but it's much tighter with the 120

This seems a bit more technical than it looks. Fall out?? High speed wobble?? WTF?? You guys are scarring me
+1 on the stem it stays on the lower trip... that bearing will need to be removed... either cut off or take it to a shop... You should change both bearings since they are out... you'll need some big sockets and a torque wrench... a pair of seals for under the tube caps and one of those washers "locking type" that you bend the tab down when you put the trips back on...lol and you will need to check your fall out of your frontend.

thanks for that diagram Sqrints. But im as confused as a baby in a topless bar. =( I think I'm gonna leave this up to someone that knows what they are doing unless I am able to get a detailed "how to" on this process. I have the manual but it's not the best. Im more of a visual learner.
Can someone explain what fall away is with a bit more detail ? TIA !!

Anytime 05Harley If I had to do it again, I would mock up the fender fitment with the right wheel /tire combo, I just was impatient, and wanted to ride. There are some sick bikes in this thread, and everytime I come in here I just want to reach for the credit card. I don't think any other group of harley guys mod up thier bikes to the extent that us nightrain guys do.

Nah it's easy... once you do it you'll be helping all your friends with theirs... Fallout... lol When you bike is up on the jack the amount of of "fall away" the front end has when falling to each side... should not fall to each side untill 1 to 2 inches before stops.
