If we lived closer I would trade you tanks

Well it is finished. I went with 2 1/2" lift.

Used some leather from an old swing arm bag to cover the hole.


Cut some 1 1/2" flat stock, drill some holes, got some stainless 10mm bolts and black chrome acorn nuts from Ace, and some 1/4" fuel line for the crossover line.


Now for the reveal.

OK, this particular thread finally has me thinking about it. I can't believe that after having taken the past year and a ton of money getting the bike and everything else as low as I can get it, I'm now considering it. What am I looking at? it's an "06" Deluxe, parts?, kits?, cost? part #? PITA? The front end and tank are still off of it as of this writing because I'm 2 months behind on my winter mods. If it's not too huge of a cost I might try it but I don't want it to be too costly because if I don't like it it's coming right back off and going over to the "bad idea" pile in the corner of my garage.

Great idea with the leather strip covering the hole!
