If your mean the Fat Baggers drop seat, I installed one on my 2013 Road King.

I've got a SG but I do have the abs. I had Fatbaggers install the kit here in Daytona so no tips for u. All I can say is I love the kit and how it sits. I now have the solo seat also. The seats are not soft touring seats, but I like mine just fine. Had to get handlebars with more pull back so I wasn't over reaching. Best mod I've done so far!

The biggest PIA in the install was the "reversing" of the ABS module and bleeding the brakes. I suggest you invest in a set of speed bleeders. Also, the battery compartment becomes very crowded. I actually purchased a Deltran Lithium battery because of its small size and it worked really well. Other than that, read the directions over and over and take your time.

I would love to sit down in the bike like that. What are you running for rear suspension?

What you mean buy 'reversing' the abs modular? The stock block can still be used?

I'm using the stock SG lowered shocks. Beauty of the FBI drop seat is you don't change the shock travel, just the frame and seat location.

The stock module is used but it is removed and flipped around and put back. In doing this, the position of the brake lines on the ABS are in a different location. You will need the FBI ABS manifold to get the lines back in position. It is kind of difficult to explain. You will also be replacing you fuse box with theirs and relocating several connectors (like the TSSM)

If you want to PM me, I may be able to scan and send the directions.

According to the website, the Baggerwerx kit does not require the ABS lines to disconnected or be bled.
