RE: Dropped it some...Put some 11"s on......
I like it but I got a couple of questions if you don't mind, first did you go with the heavy duty or standard? and like the other guy was asking how's your cornering clearance?What I'm wondring is if the heavy duty 11s would sag less than the standard 12s enough to cancel out the difference in clearance.

I got the standard and they are for Dyna, I am 200lbs with my leather and boots on.
They bottom out all the time when set 2 notches up on the preload. The fender and belt cover were smacking.
Went to the top preload setting and they only bottom out when I hit a quick bump. I will ride with them and see how it goes.
And as for cornering yeah it lost some, most on the pipe side but I can fix that.
I sure like the in the bike feel it has now.
