thanks I took off a pair of slammer shocks in favor of those giant road king air shocks both to bring the tail end up and give me some cushion. I have a herniated disc in my back and the rear end lift really keeps me from hunching and effing it up.

Im starting to like the look a lot better, is used to be two tone Kwai green and silver I couldn’t take it.

like i said, do wat you want, we all want the perfect bike, flat green looks good on some...........couldn't even imagine it on that bike, now get back to fixing that carb and your tank lift, wire tuck, coil relo........get some new pics up as you go

How do you like those shocks? Any improvement in handling and rebound?

Any particular year of road king?

thanks

I think they’re off a 2001 king. It’s a super plush ride. With my bad back it’s tough hitting potholes with the 10.5 inch stiff springs it came with.

The handling is a little slower but it’s barely noticeable after a couple rides.
