Does the big tyre effect the handling/riding?

hell yea! the bigger you go the worse it handles, i had a 230 on the back of my sporty chop and it was awful, looked nice though and wouldnt stop me doing it again! but then for me the harley is not about handling, i have a Buell for that!

I'm running a 230 rear and a 150/90 front,- & it does strait lines well but it takes a lot of wresting around corners.
I laced a standard H-D hub to a a 15" 81/2" rim to save money buying a whole wheel and e-bayd a lot of the other parts,- you don't have to spend big money on kits if you shop around & do your homework.

£stg strengthened considerably against the US$ today... check out the exchange rates...

If you have mates who want stuff from the states consolidate with them and spread the cost of the freight.

8% duty
15% vat
Customs Clearance if you are unlucky £11-15.00

Still cheaper than UK do you homework...

PM'd you....
