18" Wheels on a CUSE?
« on: March 05, 2010, 11:36:52 AM »

Riders,
installing 18" tire/wheels on my CUSE, 140/70/18 frt, 150/70/18 rear. the rep at Hog Pro states the tire/wheels are approx. 3/8 in. taller than the oem 16's ?..Want to make sure, even though a small difference that i WILL NOT experience any geometry dangers of the suspension? the bike currently has HD's low profile cartridges in the front and low profile in the rear.

Thanks in advance.  :2vrolijk_21:

Wow I am thinking of doing same upgrade to my 2006 seuc autum haze.  I am mostly concerned with installation mods that are needed and the way the bike will handle after. 

Did this raise your seat height?  I was thinking of just leaving rear alone and only doing front b/c have read the 18 inch rear will affect handling in a bad way.

What are your thoughts?  A parts list of what is needed would be great.  I really cant stand my the front wheel anymore.  Rear I cant really see so doesnt really bother me.
