Hey Guy's and Gal's,
I just picked up a 2009 Street Glide and I ordered a 21 inch front wheel for it. I am a bit vertically challenged at 5'9 and was wondering if anyone knows how much the front end will raise once I put the new rim on. I know obviously the difference between the 17 inch and the 21 inch is 4 inches, but it will have a lower profile tire. I would assume a raise of about an inch or so? Does that sound about right? Also, has anyone lowered their SG? The Harley Dealer says they do not recommend lowering the front, which I assume is because the front fender could hit the crash bar, but I am not sure. I have removed the crash bar already. Just wanted to get your thoughts. Thanks in advance.
