[Billieboy]

Need advice can you fit a 180 tyre on a 2003 sporty without any major mods.
I understand you will need new rim and fender also convert to chain drive is this correct.
Help please!!!

Hi Billieboy whats the standard tyre size and bike you are trying to fit it too?

[Billieboy]

Standard tyre 130/90 R16 on a Harley XL1200 Custom 2003.

Looking at going for 16 x 5.5 in rim with a 180/60 R16 Tyre without modifying swinging arm...but understand i will need 8 in fender and convert belt drive to chain drive.

That's the plan but not sure if it's correct.

I know of step ups from a 190 to 200 profiles without much problem, other than maybe having to remove or replace the rear wheel hugger. Is it a usual change option for your bike model?
