The spouse on the other hand wants something with a little more edge!

I always tried to keep the squeaking from the back seat to a minimum so I'll take it under advisement??

a little too edgey to me...

OK I stopped today at Carmel, In Harley Davidson I knew from a previous stop that they frequently install PM and RC Components 21" front and oversize rear wheels on the new bikes in their showroom.

Upon arrival I saw 2 bikes set up just as described. I had a brief conversation with the parts staff and this is what I was told:

They take off the factory fender and then drill out the rear mounting hole one size larger 3/8" then mount the 21" front reinstall the modified fender lifting the rear of the fender while tightening.

They are using Metzeler 880 tires as well. Seems I have read they expand less when hot than the Avon's?

He told me the 200 mm would fit on a 18 x 6" rim without modification. They offered to install the entire package for around 3700.00

Not sure about the price but the fact that they are confident enough to perform the work and warranty IMO said something about the quality of the information.

Still not 100% confident but heading in that direction

Rule #1 on this forum......

You can keep the photos of your parts guy.

Credit to Jason Spillers owner of Coastal Moto wheel provider in Florida for these install instructions for 21" wheels. Jason also confirms That 200mm rears will fit the 2010 SESG

But I don't think that's for the "SLAMMED" front fender on the SERGs or SESGs. I believe that you have to go with an aftermarket fender for a 21"...

Put me in the crowd that digs the stock Agitator wheels in contrast. I think they fit the Spiced Rum color perfectly but it really boils down to personal preference. I am gonna keep the stock wheels but change out the tires to Metzeler ME-880's with a 200/50-18 on the rear. Metzeler's fitment guide shows no issues on the stock rim, which I believe is 5.5" wide (might be 6.0?). Either way ... 200/50-18 fits on both widths.

As far as RC Components go, I have a set of Venoms on my "other" CVO (ooops! ) bike and so far they look and perform great! No problems with the chrome (about 3000 miles on them). Pic is attached, it was taken after some other mods I did and was before I had detailed it. When it is detailed ... the thing is blinding

I know Harleys ad says "slammed fender" I think that's the dscription of their ad staff.
I've measured the SESG and the 09/10 stock FLHX and the fenders are the same.

I am sure that the fender on the ’09 SERG is “slammed”. I don’t know about the ’10 SESG, off hand.

  With the 18 on the 2010, the fender comes into the rim more, therefor looks slammed..........

Just went out to the garage and looked at my wife's 09 SG and my 10 SESG.  There's a definate difference that's visable by eye.

I measured from the center of the front edge of the fender to the tire.  The wife's 09 SG is 2 1/4".  My 10 SESG is 1 1/2".....a difference of 3/4".

I'd like to merge this comment with JC's below:

I measured from the center of the front edge of the fender to the tire.  The wife's 09 SG is 2 1/4".  My 10 SESG is 1 1/2".....a difference of 3/4".

Here is what I show:

Stock 2009 Street Glide Tire (front):  130/80B17 65H = Rotational Diameter of 25.18"
Stock 2010 Street Glide Tire (front):  130/70B18 63H = Rotational Diameter of 25.16"

Feel free to check my math, but if there is 3/4" difference in fender clearence (per JC's post above) then I don't see how a 21" will fit on the stock setup without some mods to the front fender. I <casually> checked some some sizes of front tires available for the SESG and there doesn't seem to be a "low profile" tire available that will allow a final rotational diameter within .50" of the stock rotational size. That being said, I'm not sure about the method of enlarging the holes in the fender would allaow for the fitment of a 21" front (with available tires).

Again ... check my math but I'm smelling a different fender for a 21" front wheel. The only variable would be the mould of the front fender on the 2010 SESG. Meaning ... it could have the same internal clearance as the 2009 SG, but has been formed such that the very front portion of the fender is shaped so as to appear more "slammed".

Dunno ... just offering stuff up for consideration.

Went through the catalogs at the dealer today and the unpainted replacement fender for the SESG is a different part number than the 2010 and earlier SG fenders. So they are definitely different looks like a color matched standard Tequila Fender will need to be ordered to add the 21"
