From a stop the bike seemed like its on steroids now.... thanks to Fuel Moto for a great deal on the kit and overnighting the tappet cuffs this week. A Complete wash and wax after the ride to get all the winter grime and salt off the bike. I can't wait for spring!

....and I forgot to mention the lope at idle is outstanding and the bike sounds incredible.












GREAT pics! Thanks for those. Did you change the chain tensioner too? I did...) I also let my local Harley dealer do the dirty work.

What brand heated gear? I just bought GOBI HEAT jacket & gloves. About $170.00 each and worth every penny. Rechargeable batteries run em. Three levels of heat choices controlled by a lighted button. They're da bomb in cold weather!

What? You actually INCREASED ground clearance? What is wrong with you? LOL

My personal taste only, but I am not a fan of the "slammed" look, on cars or bikes. My problem, is I don't have the inseam length to support my preferred setup. I got away with 13" rears and 2" over on my XL1200L, but actually had to put 1" lowering blocks on my Classic. I think its the much wider seat and engine on the bagger.

I like the look of yours. Plus an added bonus, is greater lean angles sre now possible. The extra travel with progressive coils will help the ride quality too.

It's a 19 with 10k. Tensioners are fine.. A former HD tech did it for me. He was excellent.

Outstanding! Mine's also a 2019, but only 8K miles. But since I was going in, figured I'd just do it all! Tensioner & cuffs were only about $70 each. Enjoy!

I got the full Hotwired setup. 2yr warranty and no question exchanges at any cycle gear if I have any problems. Added bonus.

Tonight's project... carbon fiber bar and shield install. Got some additional carbon stuff on order but it will be a few weeks before it shows up. Lovin how these look. Pricy little bastards but forgot about that once I taped them up for mockup.
