Zodiac adds wheels, USD forks and more
Exclusive Zodiac 5 1/2”
travel complete Smoothglide
upside down forks by Mupo
Mupo (Italy) developed upside down forks are “the
ultimate front suspension for American V-twin
motorcycles and manufactures them specially for
Zodiac. Improved handling and damping
characteristics are the benefits of these precision-
made units;” which feature chrome-moly fork tubes,
machined aluminum alloy sliders, hard anodized
damper rods and smooth clear or black anodized top
tubes and wheel axle clamps. They feature integrated
caliper brackets for 2000 to present style calipers
designed for use with 11 1/2" disc brake rotors in
dual set-up, and can be used with most single or dual
stock and aftermarket disc brake calipers.
The triple trees are machined from a block of billet
aluminum and mirror shine polished after
machining, with the black version black anodized
after polishing. Forks are available with 0 degree, 3
degree or 6 degree raked trees. They feature
BOOTH#
‘Fat Daddy’
wheels with TÜV
Ride Wright Wheels 1058
These original Fat 50, also known as Fat Daddy
wheels, are made in the USA by Ride Wright Wheels
of California. Radial laced with straight 3/8”
(9.5mm) diameter stainless steel spokes with custom
nipples, they have billet aluminum custom hubs and
steel rims.
“These top-quality DOT approved wheels now also
have TÜV approval, for use on most Harley-Davidson
models from 1984 to present in stock and wider than
stock sizes, including ABS models.”
Available as plain stainless steel spokes with chrome
hub and chrome rim, black stainless steel spokes
with chrome hub and chrome rim or plain stainless
steel spokes with black hub and black rim, all wheels
(except in 21x2.15”) come sealed for use with
tubeless tires.
The 4.25” wide rear wheels fit most applications by
modifying the axle spacers and changing the rotor
and pulley spacing. Other wider than stock rear
wheels for use with custom wide swingarms and
offset parts also available.
Front wheels for Softail models are single flange for
use with single disc brake rotor; all other wheels are
dual flange - front for use with dual disc brake rotors
and rear for disc brake rotor and pulley.
All other colors, finishes, wheel sizes and designs are
available on special order for just about any Harley
model from 1984 to present.
They can be installed on all ‘36-‘78 Big Twins and
’87-‘99 Softails with the appropriate clutch rod, rod
end and bolt or bracket and cable kit (available
separately).
Shinko ‘Reflectors’
Shinko has introduced the SR777R ‘Reflector’ – “the
next evolution in motorcycle tire technology,” almost
completely unnoticeable until light hits the reflective
material on the sidewall when the sidewall of the
‘Reflector’ tire lights up.
With a newly redesigned, reinforced carcass, the
SR777R is described as having higher load ratings
and higher mileage. Heavier (Aramid) belting
“provides ample load capacity while also giving
more stability and longer life.”
Specifically designed for cruiser machines, it is
available in a multitude of sizes to fit many V-twin
and metric cruiser models. The tires are also available
with white sidewall; features
include H rated tubeless, four or six-
ply rated and Aramid belted.
Rocker clutch pedal kits
Zodiac has now added these rocker clutch pedal kits
to their extensive line of parts and accessories for
new and old Harleys. Kits include bracket with
bushings installed, pedal, spring cover and all friction
components. The clutch pull rod connects to the arm
on the pivot shaft which provides an offset to use
with an aluminum inner primary cover.
