I have a 2006 Electra Glide Classic and would like to lower it just a bit. Even a half inch would be great. Can anyone tell me if there is an easy way to do this?

Thanks

12" Lowering Shocks See E-Bay there around $120.00

 

My son put a set of profile low touring shocks (HD part number 54631-02B) on a 2007 Electra Glide Classic - did the trick for him.

Here you go... I tried these and didn't like them so I went to the progressive shocks 11 1/2 length....

 

I went with HD lowering profile touring shock as well, then I lowered the front, both an inch, The bike responds really well these the low profiile

 

white brothers makes a inexspensive lowering kit go to jp cycles.it will drop the rear about 1"

 

Before I went with adjustable air shocks I used a lowering bracket kit from TRW that I got on ebay. I liked it a lot and it lowered the bike about an inch at the seat. Handled great and felt great too. Here's a photo of the kit:

I ride two up often ( I am 5'6") I lowered both front and back.... after a year - went back to stock.... hated the ride while two up.... Stock height works ok for me... If I can do it - most people should be able also...

 

Help me out here... what exactly does lowering an Ultra 1/2"accomplish?
I've been doing alot of rodeo drills and just can't seem to get those front foot boards to scrape.
Other than hearing that magical sound... is there anything else to be gained by a 1/2"?

PLEASE... no wives or girlfriends need to reply.
