I think i need to change front shock oil our install bump stops. I need help.
Ouch.. expensive paint job, expensive repair, but an inexpensive fix. We have only sold a few of these, unfortunately most were after the fact like the one on the link below. Local Harely dealer came to us for a fix on a recently sold bike that they fixed for the owner under warranty I believe, but they installed Intiminators with this bump stop product and the owner (very aggressive heavy rider) did not have any further problems.
Give Brian a call at the shop to discuss this device further if you wish. It will work a whole lot better with Intiminators installed at the same time. http://store.ricorshocks.com/searchresults.asp?cat=37
I feel you pain, literally, did the same thing a couple of months ago, not as deep and not on custom paint, but still made me want to cry none the less.
i changed out the stock shock oil for the screamin eagle heavy, and no longer do i have hardly any dive when braking, nor when i hit dips or bumps. the bike feels much more connected to the road in a good way. it's still very comfortable but the suspension absorbs bumps, dips, etc, much better than it did with the stock fork oil. man that was a serious slam from that bump.
