Even though I think you know that those wheels were never used on an originally delivered Fatboy, I guess I could argue that after making one of those REAR wheels into a FRONT, he created a "Set". Before that, they were just two wheels.

We're at crossed purposes! The wheels in the photos in post #1 are 3"x16" FB, those in post #8 are 4.5"x17" Deuce rear wheels.

Speaking of purposes...was the purpose of your post to be informational to me?

Yup - we have photos of wheels from two quite different models. That's all.

My post referenced the fatboy wheels that the OP was asking about...nothing about those Double Deuce Rear wheels

But yeah, those deuce wheels in post#8 that I never mentioned are different than Fatboys


That Damn cvaria will do that...just throw crap out which I just can't tolerate


(Disclaimer: I've seen that bike before and am a bit desensitized, otherwise I would have said "cool" he made a Rear into a Front)
