If I needed a fat front tire I would of bought a fat boy.
Or be like me and get one of each.

I don't like wide glides on Sportsters, I personaly think they look out of proportion. You know too big.

I want to see more springers on sporties!! I love em I would like to see someone do the new Cross Bones front end on a vivid black nightster and some how mount the speedo on the tank cause I love the look of the head light on the cross bones. Not so much the head light but the high on the fork style. Really does it for me looks old school. But I'm still iffy about the fat front tire, I like it but I don't

I love mine! I just used the trees, axle, and new wheel...I reused my risers, rotor, forks, etc.

I didn't stretch it any...and I think it came out pretty kick ***. Reduced effort is my favorite thing about it...it's much easier to turn and feels much more solid.

this is what it looks like if you don't stretch it out:
