I found this pic of a bobber xs650. I love the big front tire. Have any of you put a bigger front tire on an XS11? Is this possible without extreme mods?

Are we naming Harley's or what? I thought maybe you meant to do a search for Electra Glide but that only returned posts about Harleys. I'm tired and slow so I didn't get your comment.1979 XS11 Special (slightly modified)

I think what he means is that it is a harley rim laced to the yamaha hub. Lots of options when you have a spoke wheel, not many with a cast wheel.
