- Mike Wanted a custom front wheel that didn't SHOUT custom front wheel ;). We teamed up with Scott from Conquest Customs to build him a stock looking front wheel and 180 tire! The world of custom can range from mysteriously badass to in your face! Email matt@stpaulindian.com for your next big custom idea! We also have a bracket available for keeping your stock fender with a 160!

I'm in the process now, Scott and his team @Conquest Custom are working their Magic on My Challenger as we speak. Can't wait to see this Fat-Front-Tire-Kit on My Bike!!!💪🏻
Scott and Lloyd, what a team!!!
So basically you have some people who buy a bike and see no reason to change anything, and then you have people who buy a bike and want to make it their own, a lot fall into the latter. So a bike that comes with a 19x3 stock and a guy want to go to 19x5 is a not that much of a difference. And actually if you live in a big city its not a bad idea given the potholes one would encounter. Me personally, i wish these came with a 21" wheel to enhance the look, hell even the HD come with 21" front wheels now. And while we at it upgrade that rear to a 18" so we can put more power to the pavement.
Looking forward to the lloydz cam install on my 22 chief dark horse at the end of the month!
Fat Tire bikes are DOPE! I got a m8 fat boy with fat tires, fun bike to ride.
Just be aware that anyone who wants a fat tire kit, you gotta learn that motoGP over the tank basics of body position, because fat tires dont like counter-leaners.
Pretty easy to do actually. Lean over the tank to the inside of the turn, and hang your knee out down and make a "Dorito" with your leg.
Basics of how King of the Bagger's riders do it.
Makes Fat Tire Bikes way easier to ride.
Facepalm.
Mad look with the fat tyre front... what wheel options do you run to accommodate the width increase ?
Now to sort freight to Australia 😂 ( might need a container of goodies😂)
Very cool!
I am surprised he didnt keep the indian head on the fender.
What is the benefit of going to a larger front tire?
Good question! More rubber to the road... and it looks cool ;)
The Joy of running a rear tire backwards on the front of your bike making slower to turn in. This falls in line with the big front tire biggers but to each their own
@@dinkydotzero You have to lean more into it for sure, but it's not bad at all :)
@@lloydzgarage Most people ride because of the handling and the nimbleness of a motorcycle. For me and I only speak for me, its no different than the huge fat tire rear craze from the chopper years, or the big front tire baggers, they may look great but they affect the bikes handling and upset the chassis but as I said to each their own. if you're building a bar hopper then no foul done. But if you like back road blasting and serious miles then spend the money on better suspension.
@@dinkydotzero Fat Tires roll over things easier and more stably than narrow tires.
A Fat front end will give you a huge advantage in front end ride improvement, and it wont track over imperfections on the road so easily.
Like Tar snakes are no big deal for my fat boy which has a 160mm front.
Fat tires handle well so long as you got good body position. I got a vide of me slinging my fat boy around a twisty road like a sport bike rider does.
I think this bike is cool, but this girls is only one on eart preety pure and i think i love a girl.
