Default Blazing Bikes Lowering Kit

Anyone used this kit? Is this something new or has it been around for a while. I want an affordable way to eliminate the gap between my fender and tire on my 08 Night Train. Planned on getting the 422's, but this just looks like a way to keep several hundred bucks for other mods.

Check it out http://softailloweringkit.com/index.html
Thanks.

Can anyone tell me comparison to using the cheap bolt kits and this kit? I understand the Manufacturer will recommend, but what about other riders?

So it it a set position or adjustable? Interesting idea though. You can always send me one and I can test how long it takes to do. Thought I would try-LOL

I don't think the height is adjustable which is why I asked that question. An easy install is great, but some people want an adjustable ride height too. We'll wait and see.

It looks like it would work if you want a fixed drop. 30 minutes? Comon, maybe on a bet.

I do agree this thread is an actor and dealer script, but I also think it is a cheap and fast way (not 30 mins.) to lower a softail to a 1" to a fixed position.

Yea, it looks that way. 30 minutes? I still say that they should send me one and I will do a post on it.

I haven't seen it before but kinda sounds like the burnout kits just a add on to the stock shocks... and not having to bust those rear bolts is a plus, I guess.

Good looking out on the post counts... Never would have looked... lol

I am no actor, just wanted some info. See my second post, where I asked for riders to reply, didn't think the company would chime in...again. Been checkin back for a couple days and was glad to see some replies.
Thanks,
