Parts, Mods And Hacks / Re: FX or FXS? How About both? FX - FXS conversion
« on: October 27, 2020, 04:08:12 AM »
I just picked up an '18 FXS and am trying to figure out how to make a dirty setup happen. Prefer 21" to 19", and spokes to cast, but either would work. Not too worried about ABS, speed readout, or anything like that. Mainly I just want to avoid caliper relocation and other such fiddling - ideally it would be a simple "remove wheel/rotor A, install wheel/rotor B."
I found a quote from another thread implying that some years of DS wheels bolt on to certain FXS models - can anyone help confirm what years are compatible? If I can find a 19" DS wheel+rotor that bolts on, that might be the trick.
Or, if anyone has advice on a 21" spoked wheel that works, that would be awesome!

Ill make it easy for you
But a fxs
Buy 16 ds wheels
It will all plug and play for you, put knobbies on dual sports (on the ds wheels) leave your stock wheels with the street tires snd you can swap the wheels when you want nothing else.
Dont waste your time getting fx wheels to work with the fxs front suspension. Its the same as everyone who went to s wheels on their fx's bit now more involved because the fxs has a different front caliper from fx
