Started to price out tires for it today. No purchases yet, just looking. Looks like tires, tubes and rim strips will be about $285 shipped. Tubes add a complication. Have to know whether it is a center or side valve. The front is center and the rear is side.
Also, the original sizes listed in the manuals are hard to find. Dunlop makes what looks to be a set that is pretty close to the OEM tires. MT90-16 in the Rear and MM90-19 for the front.

Every time I bought tires for it D&S only had a size bigger than the last. What's on the front now is the biggest it will take without rubbing.
Maybe by researching the FLH you can find what sprokets were used on it. The FLH was the road touring bike and probably had a different set up than the FX. The FX is the same frame and drive train as the FLH.

I'll mail order the tires since I can change them at Juice's house. I thought the front looked too big, shouldn't be a problem, though.
