So you like the Heritage shock better than the Fox? Same ride or better ride for cheaper dough? I have the longer Heritage shock but I’ve been too lazy too get it in and it’s been a lot warmer here in Louisiana than it is in Washington, maybe I will get energized next days off?
The different "blades" don't offer any more or less adjustability. I got the Custom version as it's the most like stock.
I called Oberon today and had a chat with Steve – he was really helpful.
I asked specifically about the differences in the Standard and Custom Blade levers. The 2 differences are that, 1. the custom blade is more rounded so you don’t have to wrap your finders around it so much to operate, plus, 2. the height of the blade, will actually allow me to rotate the lever perch (and switch gear) to allow some slight adjustment.
Suffice to say I’ve placed an order for the clutch and brake custom blade levers in black with orange adjusters.
I've also ordered a Muller Power Clutch.

Going from the 13.1" Heritage shock to 13" Fox was not worth the money or effort for me on my LRS, but the 13.5" Fox shock is supposed to be better.
Right away I noticed the stock suspension over road bumps with the new Street Bob is better than the stock LRS, it's a different 12.6 rear shock and doesn't have the inverted forks so maybe better for comfort.
So far after 500 miles, the stock Street Bob is very comfortable, the Saddlemen SDC seat and Heritage shock should keep it that way.
H-D Adversary Mirrors fitted.
That's all the H-D Adversary parts fitted now - very pleased with the outcome with the accented orange of the parts matching the overall bike.
Just waiting on the Oberon Performance adjustable clutch and brake levers (Black with orange adjusters) to finish the look.
Tool roll fitted.
I had to get rather creative in the design and fitting due to the clutch cable routing plus the lack of space and clearance on the handlebars either side of the top clamp.
Those are truss QR lighting clamps with a fabricated steel plate across (painted black) and a steel plate on the inside of the bag.
(May change the butterfly nuts to normal ones as they look as if they dig into the tool roll).
Sits a bit higher than I really wanted but doesn't affect visibility.
I have the matching saddlebags - just waiting for the saddlebag support brackets to arrive
I went with the Craftride QR Detachable brackets.
