I hate the cast wheels on my 07 speedmaster and I wanna go spokes. I finally found a rear hub from a 03 america on ebay and I bought it.. I'm wanting to lace this to a 16 inch harley rim or whatever.. I need to know if the hub will mount up to the swing arm with no problems.

thanks

It is, rear is a straight swap. Not sure about front cause you losing a disc... See a topic from Grzegorz, he did his and laced wider rims on too, powder coated etc.

No issues with either the front or the back. Except the single disc on the front. You will need to remove the right hand caliper.

sounds good... I have a fair amount of experience building bikes and I just wanted to make sure the america hub would bolt up. The bike has already been completely blacked out (powercoat) and lowered 3 inches.. i'm doing a 500-16 on rear and front and I'm getting a frame from cycle one. maybe I need to start a build thread.

You absolutely do!
