Hello,

Is there anyone have mixed wheel on your Pan America S? My bike have spoked front wheel but cast rear wheel, which doesn't make any sense... This is only available one in my area so I bought her but I wonder whether anyone has similar wheel set as my bike

Hi

Thats not a standard set up from HD. Did you buy it new or secondhand.

I bought new one and it seems like HD put wrong front wheel.
I was hoping the rear one is bad but it seems like the dealer will replace the front one

Welcome to the forum @caemoon2. I'm surprised Harley made a mistake like that but good thing that they're replacing it. Are they able to fix it quickly for you?

Yeah I got a call from a local dealer saying they are getting the wheel for me and they can probably fix it next week .

I’d hang on to it, you’ve got £200 worth of upgrade front wheel there. Some other owners would no doubt be willing to make a swap for a cast wheel plus money.

That was a dealer swap. I had the Laced wheel requirement, but the only one they found had Cast Wheels. They simply swapped their Demo laced wheels for my Cast. I was chatting with one of the service guys while waiting and he mentioned that there were some laced wheels that were warped and had to be returned for replacement. They probably had a swap and had a spare Cast to put on yours in the interim and never swapped it back out.

Also, not sure if this is true, I have not been able to confirm other than the service guy's words. The Laced wheels require a tune that limits the bike to 130 MPH so if true, a mixed set would not be permitted by Harley MFG.
