Looking good sonnydaze. My father did go with the longer Softail fork tubes and longer cowbells. He went through 2 sets of the 1960-84 triple trees from J&P and both were failures. They would never tighten up correctly because the Chinese manufacturing just isn't within specs. Third try was with a used original set and the front end is perfect now. Will you be going all the way and using the 1960-84 nacelle? I would kill for that (and may do just that).
