Default 21 inch front on 2011 sg

What would be the minimum I would have to do to put on the 21 inch front wheel. In other words the components I need to change.

Just a new tire and I would recomend lowering the front 1 inch to compensate for the taller wheel. This is what I have done and love the setup.

I think you still need to buy some fender adaptors to raise your fender. Not sure if there is enough room to re-drill your fender or not. If your bike has ABS just make sure you put the wheel on correctly. (Meaning, one side has a special bearing for the ABS sensor). Eastern Performance Cycles has a 21" wrap fender and wheel adaptors for 250.00.

The minimum would be buy one, drill out the rear hole in the fender to 3/8", tip the fender forward and put it on.

just a 21 x 3.25" or 21 x 3.5" wheel and a 120/70-21 front tire. You can use your stock brake rotors and stock axle spacers with most wheels. Sometimes the stock fender might need to be raised a little bit in the back but that is the only small mod you might need to make.

I didn't have raise my front fender at all. I decided I would ride it like it was and see what would happen. I figured the worse would be it would mess up the paint and I would have a good reason to get a custom one. Well is still rocking the stocker!
