#487779 smokescreens (User) lifes better riding twins Platinum Boarder Posts: 10061 Re:wondering if im to low up front 1 Year ago   You know I think that the tire calculater isn't right. That 21” tire is around 5” taller than the stocker when I put them side by side. So now im gunna have to put the new and old tire next to each other and see if those are close to each other. Maybe I can just raise the front 1” and keep my progresive springs.   Logged     feel free to look thru my albums email me at jasonwoody1982@yahoo.com my 2005 midnight 1700 ORIGINAL ROAD SLAMMER   The administrator has disabled public write access. #487782 DocShadow (Admin) Hmmmm .... send beer Admin Posts: 17992 Re:wondering if im to low up front 1 Year ago   smokescreens wrote: You know I think that the tire calculater isn't right.

There is 5in difference in wheel height, but you lose some of that by running the lower profile tire.   Logged     I can handle going fast.

Check around and you can find what you have on the bike. You differently sound nose low.   Logged     Ask me about my attention deficit disorder or my pie or my cat. A dog. I have a bike.
