Ordered a replacement bolt for my stock A/C since it vibrated loose and completely out when I ride my new SB to the corner store and back. Luckily, I caught the cover on the way off the bike! Nuts that it was that loose on only my second ride from the dealer!
Funny, but I've never owned a Harley for speed. Have owned a Triumph Sprint 1050, a ZZR1200 and two Concours 14's for speed fixes. Dead solid stable at speed, were each of those. My FXDC felt twitchy at 85-90 MPH. I simply enjoy riding Harleys for Harley's sake. The XR1200 has enough funtime power for me today.
I have ridden sport bikes also. But for me, it is always more fun to ride a slow bike fast (Harley), than ride a fast bike slow (sport bike).

Should have "reversed" your rear axle. Now you gotta pull yer exhaust to remove your rear wheel.

Not necessarily. .my exhaust blocks my axle and I just pulled the wheel and re-installed without removing the exhaust. Place scissor jack under tire, undo shock bolts, raise swingarm/wheel combo higher into fender until axle will clear the exhaust. Remove axle, lower scissor jack, remaining components and wheel comes out. Reverse to re-install, would be helpful to have someone assist in getting the wheel into position on the scissor jack. I'm nervous about reversing the axle as I read a discussion years back about how the threads are right hand thread on the left side of the bike and flipping it around could possibly allow the nut to loosen under weight and acceleration/deceleration forces. I don't know if I buy into that but it came that way from the factory so if I can I will keep it that way.

I just got mine last week and they were pretty flawless. The issue I have with them is they didn't bother to match them to the gloss black risers so they stick out. They're semi gloss black spacers and the risers are gloss black. Kind of defeats the purpose of them blending in. Maybe I'm just nit picking but if I were to make these I would make them match. The company Spacer Jims when they sold theirs, now gone, matched.

I got a set and mine came in dinged up too, but not as bad yours. I was also bummed they don't match the stock gloss black. Pretty disappointing all around.
Wonder if Kevin is aware product is leaving his shop in less than pristine condition? He is a sponsor for the site and I'm sure he doesn't want any bad press. Not so good for business. May want to PM him about the problems encountered. Just sayin'... tp dd50
