Nobody pays attention to the rank on here anyways lol. I have to say that the Shotgun shock has lived up to it's hype, I have not had ANY issues with it so far. Your gonna luv it bro!

Also, Dave (the Godfather) was the first to put this on a fatboy lo (I believe I'm the 2nd) and I got the inspiration from his install. I will admit that I did it for the Slammed look originally, but I didn't realize at the time that I was buying the best air ride system on the market. I lucked out and could not be more glad.

Beasley: This may be a dumb question, but when you do the coil relocation do you move the horn or just completely get rid of it? I like the look of it but I don't think I could get rid of the horn, I've had to use it a few times and at least one of those times it definitely saved my ***.

I'm going to put a sportster horn up front on the frame at the top of the down tubes. Right now I don't have anything on there, just extended the wires and strapped them up. Have to pick up the horn this next week.

So, I got the sissy bar but the wrong blinker relocation kit (chrome) so I called the stealership and they said they'd get it in the mail. Not known for my patience and never too keen on the looks of the kit, I went to wacky-mart at 11:30 pm and picked up a Skill bench grinder for $50 and went to work on the mount points. Just ground a little at a time till she finally slid into place and locked. Took the Birchwood Casey Super Black pen I use for touching up my pistols and covered up the exposed steel and you can't tell I did anything. Will send back both kits and get the cash, and I'm plus one grinder.
The bar looks fantastic BTW. May not take it off.
