Default 2 Inch Tank Lift

Just put on the 2 in tank lift, was a piece of cake, hardest part was taking the seat off, just need to get a rubber cover or paint the new bolt head

Does it seem to affect the seat height at all?

Had one on my dyna. You can clean the rocker boxes now,and i would think it aids the cooling somewhat.Plus it just looks good!!!!!

These might help. I have them on on my bike but I don't have that tank lift. I am having a hard time making out the pictures and other than cleaning, what other benefit is there? Just curious. Might be something I NEED....

Glad to see a picture of someone who actually has it. I've been thinking of getting the kit from DK (forum sponsor) for a while for my WG, then the Deluxe, and now the RK. It's supposed to allow more airflow for cooling but the biggest thing to me is able to clean better and the look it provides. Did you have any problems with wiring or lines?

Bama had no problem with anything, got them from DK also and just removed the seat, loosened the rear tank bolts took out the fronts and lifted gently, no tension on lifting install tighten and went for a ride, will check in a few rides for tightness, used blue locker on the bottom bolts

DK Custom products. I had a tank lift on my street bob and loved the look but I always had to keep track of my milage because the tank lift and really the fuel gauge on my dyna was crap. If you put the tank lift on the front and back will it mess with the street glide fuel gauge???
