I'm trying to soften up the front end a little. I like the handling but some bumps can jar the fillings. So, I am installing polyurethane riser bushings with at least some give, instead of the solid risers that have been on there, and installing some cushioned grips. I installed the progressive heavy duty fork springs a while back so now I am going to cut the spacers a quarter inch shorter in hopes that will help, also lower the front tire pressure a little. And maybe the +3 rake of the wide glide trip trees will help soften the blow a little, instead of the -1 of the fat bob trees that have been on the bike.

 

 

Don't think the polyurethane will make much of a deference but the rubber ones will...

 

Aye, I just ordered a set of OEM riser bushings - every little bit will help I suppose. Hopefully it will all add up to a somewhat softer ride over those bumps. I can use the spacers and chrome pieces off the polyurethane set.

 

I took the beast to drink some beers in Tel aviv Israel.

 

Your seat set up is interesting. FWIW, Israel is interesting too. Never been, but would like to some day. tp dd50

 

Installed some Conely's saddlebags and a Top Hand Ventures sissy bar.

 

Woohoo! When's that going in?

 

 

Will 1995 Dyna Wide Glide triple trees work on a 2001 Dyna Wide Glide? Thanks
