A 150 is as wide as you can go, and if you ride 2 up, the 150 has a much less load rating.  You can go with the wider tires if you use an aftermarket swing arm.  Don't know this from experience, just from what I have read.

Boatman is correct.

There is a kit availible from Hogpro that offers a new swingarm, primed rear fender, axle, bag supports, hardware ect. that will work for a 180 tire using the stock belt and pully's. About $1700. If interested PM me for more details.....

Does the original wheel accept 180 tire?

The 180 is too wide for a 3.5" wheel.  IMO..
