Default Vulcan Custom front end to a Vulcan Classic

Hey Does anyone know, if i want to put a Vulcan classic front tire on a 900 custom will it fit? I am taking my custom and doing a bobber and thinking a fatter tire will look better then 21 inch front wheel that comes on the custom? Are the Triple Trees the same?

thanks guys

The classic front has a smaller diameter than the custom, the largest custom to fit would be a 90 ; do a search on custom largest front tire.

If yoy want to change the rim ... dunno, spacers and disc issues may arise.

they swap right out all you need is the spacers from the wheel (all three) the forks are the exact same except the classic has chrome covers up top.

The fender might look funny unless you aren't going to run one.
