Anybody know what the widest tire that could be put on the front of stock savage forks?

don't know the answer, but I accidently bought a 110/90-19 last time. It fit the wheel, but wouldn't fit under the fender. I used a couple scraps of 2" flat stock to raise the fender about an inch.

Now much higher top speed with that big tire on there! ;D

Cool. If I put a bigger tire for the old bobber look, Ill probably take the fender off. Thanks,

check your local laws, some places require a fender.

Ive been lookin at the law governing bikes in Wv. Didnt see anything about the fenders, but I do have to add turn signals, and at least one mirror. I guess thats what I get for assuming. In Nc and Ky I didnt have any and was legal. Now I have to go and integrate some signals in my system. lol. Thanks for the heads up
