Default Front tire fitment question

I put this in the general chat but not getting any replies so I thought I would put it here

Not trying to open a can of worms with another tire thread but I am looking at new tires and I have a question regarding front tire size.

The stock front tire on my 99WG is a 90/90/21.

Question, has anyone ever put a 100/90/21 or similar on the front?
if so, did it rub, are there any fitment issues between the fender brackets?

My rear tire is supposed to be a 130 but I was able to squeeze a 140 in there but just barely so I am curious about doing the same with the front

Thanks

A 100/90 will be about 3/8" wider than a 90/90, but also a little larger in diameter. On a WG I can't see it getting close to anything, to rub! I suggest the Dyna forum will be a better place to ask.
