I'm going to buy a set of take-off wheels from a Harley Dyna Low rider, they're mags and setup for a single front disk and the rear has the single disk and the pulley for the belt drive.
Obviously I'll have to yank the pulley for a sprocket, and since the Bonnie is Right Side Drive I may have to either turn the wheel around (and flip the tire) or swap the pulley for the rotor, and the rotor for my sprocket.
other than axle spacers, speedo drive, and possibly having to custom drill/machine my brake rotors and rear sprocket, what other problems could I run into?
The bonnie's wheels are 19'' and 17'', and I think these HD wheels are 19'' and 16''. I'd think a 16'' rear wheel with a tall tire would be the same as a 17'' rear with a shorter tire, basically I think the difference would be negligible. Maybe I'd get a lower ride height by a 1/8'' which would be ok by me, and it may affect my gear ratio a small amount, and that's ok too.
Any experts out there that can sway me one way or the other? I'm getting these wheels in great shape with all the rotors/pulley intact (which I won't need) and with some decent rubber on them.
Thoughts?
I'd just like to have mag wheels to avoid tubes and broken spokes, and it would look cool.
