Default Glide wheels on an Ultra

Found a deal on some 2012 SG wheels for my 2012 Ultra but they are ABS.
If I understand correctly all I need to do is Chg bearings.
For those who have done it where, brand, and how much are you paying for bearings?

Thanks
Clif

No problem...just go to your local HD dealer and get the correct bearing. I don't recall the exact amount for the bearing but, it was less than $50.00.

I do not even think you have to change the bearing. Ask the dealer, but I think the bearing dimensions are the same.

If the wheel you are buying is ABS, you will have to buy a non ABS bearing. If you are installing it on a non ABS bike. I know, It's what I had to do.

Found a set but seller doesn't know what model they came off of can you visually tell a difference in them?

SG had different diameter front wheels in different years. 16" in 07-08. 17" in 09-10. 18" in 11-12 I think. I've got an 18 on the front of my 08 Ultra.

I've got '09 Street Glide Wheels on my '11 Road Glide Ultra - that way I could mount the tires I already had. Mine are powder coated black - just had to get new bearings.
