I have a 2017 FLHXSE and have noticed the crappy Aggressor rear wheel is starting to have chrome peel on the spokes. I am not a fan of the wheels anyway so I am ready for a change. I really like the Agitator in Gloss Black but the P&A catalog does not list my bike as one that the 19" front and 18" rear will fit. My dealer inquired for me to MoCo and they confirmed that they should not be installed on Street Glides at all and only Road Glides. WTF? Does anyone ha e any further information? I am probably going to buy them anyway but wanted some reasoning id there is any. Thanks for any help.
Funny thing about that, the
actual catalog listing shows they fit all 2009 and up Touring models except Trikes and 2012 and later CVO's unless they came equipped with Agitator wheels originally. So whoever told you they should only be installed on Road Glides is wrong. And they don't indicate why you shouldn't install them on a CVO but they specifically show they fit all the other variants of the Street Glide for 2017. I've seen this sort of thing on tons of parts over the years, where H-D claims something won't work on a CVO but it in fact does. The Agitator rims come in the correct size for your bike, and are rated for use on the heavier Touring models so that shouldn't be a factor for your bike either. If there is an actual legitimate reason they don't want you to install these wheels on a '12 or later CVO, they should spell it out. Otherwise I tend to just call BS.
