DNA wheels

I have the same bike and just put the 'Fat 40' DNA wheels on it. I would have preferred the Ride Wright but they were so much more expensive. I bought mine from Easy R in Qld and they shipped them to me. Good to deal with but stuffed up the rotor sizes. They didn't keep them on the shelf either so had to wait some time for them to come out of the US. Ride Wright are on the shelf at Rollies if you have the $$. Are you, or have you done the front fork lowers in chrome yet?...will you at any stage? Thanks

Isn't most of the DNA stuff poor quality?
Their springer front ends are known to be garbage.

Can't comment on quality but have you looked at VPW.

Quality with ride wright and their hub system is apparently better. I have the Bassani fishtails. What did you do with your old fork lowers?

Nah they are fine. I had ride wrights on my first Deluxe and they rusted! Did you want to sell you replaced lowers?

What do you want for them? As per everything you take off a HD, they aren't worth much to anyone else (and these only fit this model too). $80 + postage?

New chrome ones are @$650. It will cost me $320 to have them professionally chromed (better job than HD genuine), and minimal time with the bike off the road. Not going over $100 + postage. Financially they aren't worth more than that to me. If you can get a better price for them, go for it, but they only fit this model.

Labour prices vary - my guy charges $100/hr which is very good. HD dealers charge @$150/hr. Wheels are DNA fat 40's, chrome spokes, black wheels and hubs. Front 21 x 3.5", rear 18 x 4.25", + super spoke brake rotors to suit (all on their website). All purchased from Easy R, Brisbane. All up delivered $3047.80. Have to imported from the US so expect to wait several weeks. Bit of mucking around as they supplied incorrect rotors and bolts. Can't recall the labour but 2-3 hours. Tyres are Vee Rubber white walls. Not sure of the price. I'd need a quote on the shipping for the lowers (can be done online with the box dimensions and weight), but my offer stands at $100 + postage.

Mate - all for an extra $50!? I spent about an hour pulling my invoices and costings/emails so as to let you know what wheels etc etc I have....at your request. And now you are going to see if you can get a better price? Bit rough!!! Your forks ONLY fit 2018 and up models. How many new bike require new forks???

Clearly this wanker isn't going to add any comment.... but is more than willing to hover in the background. What a tool!

Then don't in the next breath ask for a favour to send you all my prices and quotes - do your own research you lazy dog! People on this site help each other out, not just bludge and give nothing back.
