I was wondering if anyone has installed a 140 rear on an ElectraGlide and if there were any problems with the install, in other words, can it be done without mods? Thanks in advance.

yes

Hey Don,

Do you know what make tire your going to get when you go with the 140?

 

[HUBBARD]

Yeah, 'er 'uh, Y2KFLH,
 No worries!  Looks better than the 130, but wears the same! [smiley=nixweiss.gif]  Dunlop is the best in my opinion.  Later--HUBBARD

Don't you people have a HD catalog? ALL dressers have had the 85u or 143MM tire since the '04's came out. If you don't believe me, why not just look at one. All 04'and '05's have a 140 rear tire.

Thanks for all the feedback, My bike is a '00 model. The rear tire I'd like to install is a Dunlop D402 in the new size...MU85B16.  Dunlop's spec shows it as 5.51" wide, as opposed to the stock width of 5.20". Now you have all the info. I feel that the new size tire should fit; with the stock tire, it looks as if  there is enough clearance for the added width.

Hell no.  Can't ride a catalog.  Catalogs are what the net is for.

DW, I resent that.  There's not a single thing about me that's pure ! [smiley=beerchug.gif]

DW. I would suggest not eating Cheerios anymore. Someone keeps peeing in them. That's got to be the only logical explanation of why you continually belittle members of this site.
