>> I called the guys at Race Tech about the caddies kit for my '06 Street Bob, it has the 49mm fork tubes, and he didn't have a clue what to recommend. <<

I used PN 0416-0013. That's the complete Caddies kit. Although, in retrospect, it probably would have been just as good to use the valves and stock springs. I got the kit from Zanotti's for $260.

Bob,
Thanks for the part number and the advise.

It seems there must be a run on these. Got a few orders this week on the same thing. If you have any problems, feel free to call for help. I will try to walk you through it yourself. Please remember to have the special tools there for you to use so you do not have to spend over time putting it together.

Review the directions first & if it is your first time, read them again. You may want to chrome your lowers and you can buy them on e-Bay. Try to get brand new or new take-offs as the bug juice gets into the aluminum and causes bubbling and the chrome to peal off. Even with a warranty you still have the problems.

You may wish to purchase a Fat Bob right lower new or new take-off as it has the caliper mount for 2X brakes if you wish. I am going to do an article on how to mount Brembos (06-Current or FL 2008 ). I bought one to do this paper. It is a direct bolt-up . Anything I can help you with when you install, do not hesitate to call me toll free. Be glad to help you.
