Lowering a 2012 Ultra
#11
bufbills.......... I am flat footed but want a little more spread on my legs at the stop sign...like it was on my Softail. if you care to share I'm 5'10" 235....What kind of blocks did you put on? If you read up this thread's first post skydude426 said he was not a big fan of his blocks.... I have no idea if he's 125lbs or 375lbs. which could be a factor... Really like (all) the feed back.

I'm not a fan of the blocks as well. I have short legs, so went with an SG-type shocks for the rears when I bought my King. Had the seat narrowed and lowered a bit. Was flat footed with a slight knee bend when sitting on the bike. I have the 12" Ohlins now. I'm about 155# on a good day and the shocks sit at about 11" when I'm on the bike.
Try modifying the seat if you haven't done that yet and see where that gets you.
