I'll go grab the owner's manual and have a look. Do you know if shorter rubber bump stops can be found somewhere?

 

Confirmed, spanner wrench part# given is the same, used for the rear shocks in the Sportster from the late 70's. The manual states the shock is set up for a 200 lb rider. LOL No wonder my sorry *** can't move it. Ha ha

 

I'm not familiar with your seat shock but if it adjusts like a conventional shock absorber, you may be able to use a pair of curved-jaw Channellock pliers with some type of cushion like a piece of leather, to prevent scratching.

 

Thanks for updating this thread guys...really enjoying it.

 

all that money for an overpriced, glorified Street Glide, and you think they could give you the damn wrench to adjust your seat.
one of the reasons the Co gets no more of my new bike money.

 

Did your bike come with an air pump to adjust the rear suspension?

 

No customer buying a new fairing equipped Harley bats an eye on an extra $50 ...not even a iron 883 buyer. Many buyers want the 3 options they removed just to save pennies, and the negative implications of leaving them off cheapens the image of a premium product at a very premium price. Many negative comments on this site for removing them.
Will it stop people from buying, no it will not, but it leaves a bad taste in the buyer.
Many riders carry the second fob in case something happens to one.
Priced adding a vent to the fairing ? Not that anyone probably will, but it is the principle of it.

 

Thanks to the generous windscreen - I have no bad taste in my mouth!
But yes, the first thing we did was order two heel shifter ad-ons and two key fobs.
One good thing, Biggs Harley sold the bike at MSRP to us. SD Harley marked the first one we got up $5000. But SD Harley also has a life-time warranty on the engine.
FYI - palm Springs Harley is slated to get one and they will sell it at MSRP I believe. Ask for Erik Van Hek.

 

I agree, seen one at my local dealer and thought they did a very good job. Friend actually has an original paint 1969 the same hi-fi blue color and he was floored on how good it looks. Maybe they will do a Panhead version like my OP 1965. Yes that is original miles.

 

So did you cancel the Idaho Revival buy ? You got the first at SD, and the Biggs one also ? I was going to see Biggs tomorrow if they had a incoming Revival, but sounds like it is gone. May check out Palm Springs then, thanks for the tip !
