If I do this ill do it slowly over the winter and be done before riding season comes back around next year. Anyone who can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated

The first day riding it, it really opened my eyes. It felt as if it was trying to straighten me up in every turn. After a day or two though I was completely comfortable with it, and used to the difference in handleing. But, as I said before, it is not a "canyon carver". You need to make turns at a slower speed, and with more fore thought. If you do happen to get into a turn too fast....well, it wakes you up! Of course, the same thing will happen with a skinny tire. It's just that with the wider tire, the approach speed needs to be lower.
But, that said, I'd never consider removing it! I get a lot of attention at any gathering, and people are always stopping to lok at it. It certainly is a different looking Sportster! For me, I'd rather have a cool looking bike, than a speedster. I'm just a cruiser anyway, and prefer enjoying the scenery, instead than having it fly by at 90mph.

I bought my kit in January this year. It was $2199 at that time.
