Beautiful wheels! Love the mods. Gotta make he bike yours. I vividly remember when I saw the stock wheels for the first time. I loved the way they looked but knew they would be a pain in the a** to clean.

Mod on!

Not sure if you were looking for opinions or not?  IMO, they do not go with the character of the BO at all...plus I would not want to run 120 fronts on my bike either just to get to Metzelers and Avons(and believe me, i want to dump these Dunlops as soon as I can)...

With the BO now part of the standard Softail lineup, I am hoping one or both companies will be making a 130 front tire soon !

Not a PITA to clean at all, they just take a little longer than 5 spoke wheels, that's all.  The extra few minutes does not take away from my riding time whatsoever.  I have plenty of opportunities after the sun sets, or early in the a.m. to spend about 15 minutes wiping down the wheels.

For me, and I know everyone is different, the turbine wheels are what make the CVO BO the bike it is.  The 110 motor, the heavy breather air filter, horseshoe oil tank, beach bars, chopped front and rear fender, have all been done before in one form or another on other HD's....but these wheels are new and fresh and there is really nothing else like them out there that I have seen.

Ha'ha! 'To each his own'.......as I stated in the OP, I realize that I am the minority with this issue and knew I would get some flaming for it, but I really disliked the turbine wheels (which is the same on every breakout) and the 'wraths' make the bike for me.  :)

+1

You now have a completely unique CVO Breakout... those wheels look great!

And a 120R in a light bike like that? Wow... bet it's hard to stay on that monster!

Well done!

Hey, who said my BO has a factory look?  Boy, I hope not :P

BTW, I must have missed the part about the OP dropping a 120R into his BO?  In that case, who cares about wheels, he has a 120r in a sub-700 lb. cruiser   :cucumber:
