    A dealer can probably work it out for you. The dealer would be a poor choice for this swap, but there are hundreds of different spoke wheels that will fit a Fatboy, and your stock Fatboy rims are worth good money. So you would probably come out ahead buying aftermarket spoke rims and selling your stockers on Ebay. Plus, you can get aftermarket spoke rims that are tubeless.
