Default Wide Glide tubes on a Street Bob

Got the tubes installed today,just enough extension for the look I want without effecting handling. Ride seems just a little choppier,leans over a bit more on the kickstand but everything seems fine for the few miles I ridden on them.

I'm pretty much done with changes,I think. I'll have had the bike a year on friday and have ridden fifteen thousand,best money I've ever spent.

Well,there are a coupla more things I want to do.

Good Luck

Tom

Right,all stock wg parts.Been wanting to do it for a while. Couldn't see why it wouldn't work although nobody at the Harley shop and a chopper shop would commit that it wouldn't adversely affect handling. Mud did it on his and said no probs and he was exactly right as usual.

Good Luck

Also, what parts were required. Did you have to change anything else besides the tubes??? Brake line obviously comes to mind, but what else??

Did you get the tubes new or are they take offs from something else.

If new, how much, and do you hve a part number???

She always said an extra 2 1/2" makes a difference
