Hi I love my 96 fatboy I recently broke my drive belt and I am going to replace it soon. I am considering trying to go with a wider rear tire. I don´t want to go too wide just enough to make the rear tire match the look of the rest of the bike. I bought the bike back in 2012 and I love it. I have kept it pretty much stock. I walk around it and look at it and it looks so long and low and wide and then ya look at it from the rear and it just doesn´t look right, it needs a wider rear tire. I figured since I have to tear down so much to replace the belt it would be a good time to put some more meat on the rear. I know I have to go with a thinner belt and change the sprockets. I could sure use some tips and advise from someone who has done this. Thanks Don
