What size wheel
« on: September 08, 2013, 10:35:15 PM »

I really like the look of the baggers with the big front wheel. But I wonder how much of the ride is affected by it. I don't want to lose that since I think the ride is fantastic but I do want a bigger wheel. Just don't know. I'm thinking between a 23" or a 26".  Would love to hear from people who have done this already.

I have a 21" and the ride is much better than stock. Have been told that's as big as you can go without adding rake. Puzzled is one that knows and there are others.......some have gone to a 26". Puzzled also has wheels for sale at fair prices, he would be my go to guy for wheel info.

Thanks for the reply. Ill have to look him up. It's a toss up between a 23" which you can do with a set of triple trees or a 26"which you then need a rake kit.
