Comments and opinions wanted !

 I was talking to the Asst. service manager at San Diego H-D yesterday about putting the solid polished wheels I have sittin around from Elvis on the new 07 Road Glide. S. M. told me the 07 wheels  have 25mm bearings as opposed to 1" in the 02-06.  ?

Thanks,
              Tremenous amount of info in that 108 pages. From what I could read the 25mm wheel bearing issue is only for front wheels on Softail models. ?? weird.

 Appreciate the help Dude

A tube axle is stronger than a solid axle.

B B,

It appears that is a Softail thing only.

Hey Jerry, maybe the MoCo is gonna start lightening up the 'un-sprung' weight to make'em FASTER !

Reducing the unsprung weight would make for better handling and ride, no doubt about it.

Hey Jerry, I remember I used to sometimes get a 'moaning sound' coming from the P-pad on my knuckle chopper!
