Thanks...that's pretty sharp looking....

Since that appears to be only the externals of the forks, that'll give you the opportunity to change the oil also, correct?

I live 15 minutes from Lakeshore Harley. I think $200-250 is good for labor for the kit.

You could have bought the kit for 440 bucks and had it installed for about 100 bucks. Each to their own.

I'm at $1,193 for the chrome front end kit installed and the 1000 mile service with all Amsoil. I think that's pretty good. I believe I can trust this service department. They have done all of my upgrades and their work is good. I don't know of any Indy shops in the Chicago area besides D&D customs, but he is slammed with work! City Limits Harley is taking good care of me!
