centering rear tire?

steelsquirrel549 · 10-10-2008, 10:04 PM

has anyone centered their rear tire on a 07 fxdwg or similar bike? I want to put a 200 series rear tire on but currently my tire is offset to the drivers side of the bike. Does anyone know what all is involved? I heard something about machining the rear caliper bracket and using different spacers? also what do you do to line the belt back up? shim the rear pulley back out? any help appreciated.

Hd has a kit for the 200 wide tire. Don't know what it involves. I think it is a couple spacers for the pulley's. If it works pm me I'm looking at doing the same with mine.

do you know the part number for the 200 kit from HD? i was told they had a 180 kit but when i looked it up all it consisted of was new brackets for the trear turn signals.
