I despise Sportsters turned into baggers YUCK I also dislike real baggers but I do like your truck.

 

No worries...we love baggers on this thread. Thanks for sharing. I do like your truck...haha.

 

Just because you can does not mean you should.

 

my 2005 XL1200C sporty / bagger

 

Changed my 12" Street Glide oil/air shocks to 11" Bitubos from DK Customs. These Bitubos were special ordered in chrome from Italy. Took it for a short ride today and the ride is comparable to the SG shocks but with better rebound and dampening. It also sits me a little lower.

CLEARANCE WITH BAGS

 

And best of all.......they shine.

 

THEY look very very nice! Good choice.

 

Thanks. The 12" Bitubos would have given me a "softer-more cushy" ride with more travel than the 12" SG air but it would have sat 1/2" higher since the bitubos have less sag. Since the ride with the SG Air is pretty good and the 11" bitubos has a comparable ride, decided rebound and dampening (more road feel) and the need to plant my feet was more important.

Thanks again and ride safe.

 

I know this is the forum for baggers, but I have a 2015 883 superlow (1st bike!) and I'm looking to add bags to it for my first solo ride next summer. Anyone have experience good or bad with Viking?

These are the ones I'm thinking of...

Thanks!

And Santa brought my girl Vance & Hines slash cut slip ons! If only it weren't winter...
