I have been reading your site for quite a while now and it has helped me out on more than one occasion!
I have read many posts regarding this issue but none have actually answered my question!
I have a 2001 Night train that I want to customise, I want to fit a 18x5.5 rear spoked wheel, I am removing the rear struts and fitting a Jesse James rear fender so clearance shouldn't be a problem.
What I would like to know is: Will the aftermarket wheels that I see for sale on eBay for a night train 2006 onwards fit in the 2001 swing arm? If so can I use the original pulleys, rotor and calliper?
I have access to the machine shop at work for turning up spacers ect.
Hopefully someone can help, it is very expensive to ship the wheels and I would hate to get them all the way to NZ for them not to fit.
Here is a link to a couple of sets of wheels I have been looking at, any comments on the quality would be greatly appreciated.
Hey man, fitment shouldn't be one of your issues, for example we manufacture tons of wheels that we can make in ANY size to fit ANY Harley.. If we have a post for a 2006 Night Train just call us with the style rim and we'll make it to fit your 2001 Night Train. No issues at all, the axle is what you'll need to worry about and we'll set it up for the bike you have. It'll fit your stock components as well you'll just to figure out spacing on your custom rear end.
Everything will be made to fit your stock rotors and pulley. We offer spoke wheels and mags as well, if you want to find a good quality brand check out Right Wrights and Sinister's spoke wheel designs.
A couple brands that you posted the links to you can find a ton of reviews here with a quick search, remember you get what you pay for!
Here's an example of a Sinister Wheel we offer (Big Phat Daddy)!
