Hey Sugarskull2010-I'm guessing you had to extend your brake line and throttle and clutch cables? I've read so many different threads that say there was no extension needed, to you have to extend everything... Is there a kit for extended cables? How long of a rise can you have before you really need to extend anything? My local harley shop told me 4" rise wouldn't need any kind of extension... just relocating cable ties and stuff. Your thoughts? Anyone wanna have a stab at this question?

The bike is upgraded when I purchase it. I don't know if they change the cable.

You should be fine with a 4" rise. No extensions needed.

It was a bad connection in the harness. JD sent me an entire new kit. Got up and running in a few hours.

Thanks.

So some of the Lo's I saw in Sturgis.. if you caught some random dude with amazing hair and a seriously loud bike taking pictures of you, it was probably me.

This guy just had a Memphis Shades fairing installed at their vendor's both..then promptly hailed upon:

I really did like that fairing..it was low, not sure if I could see over it though, and I didn't want to sit on his bike haha

...I also went to see JD at the Shotgun Shock tent.. with a wad of cash in my hand... 3 times on 2 different days no one was at their tent! The third time, there was a guy sitting there, and as soon as my friends and I walked up, he didn't even acknowledge us and walked away! I was ready to drop some serious coin on a new SS..but.. nope.

Here's a link to my full Sturgis album. I'm still waiting for the other 3 guys I went with to consolidate photos.
