I have an appointment this morning to have my forwards installed. $175 install fee on a 2008 Low Rider. I looked at the installation instructions and could easily accomplish this in an afternoon. However, I just returned from a 13 month deployment to Afghanistan and my wife is VERY SENSITIVE about me spending too much time doing anything other than family time. I don't blame her. $175 is worth a little peace in my life right now!

Update: Installed forwards at Cape Fear HD in Fayetteville NC on a 2008 FXDL, $165 + tax. Not bad considering it would have taken me the whole afternoon and a lot of grief from my wife for spending too much time with the bike. I only rode the bike back from the dealership, but what a difference the position makes as far as comfort. I am 6'1" and was a little cramped with the mid controls. Now I am really enjoying the ride. I think a sidekick custom seat will finish up the transformation. I can see myself riding this thing for many years.

RE: Crazy Question
Welcome home M.A.C just remember those foot pegs are not anti-torque pedals so you can not steer with them and their is no collective so you can't pull pitch when someone pulls out in front of you, its all NOE on the bike. Hope you like Korea when you get over there. I had a great time over there with the 377th Med. Co (AA). Mike Novosel, (MOH) passed away last year, his son was in our unit and Michael Durant, (of Black Hawk Down fame), was there also. Always looked up to my pilots. They are my personal heros.
