The springer rides awesome.&nbsp\\; I lost some turning radius, but its seems truer, due to the extra lead and wieght.&nbsp\\; It's definitly not as smooth at high speeds though!&nbsp\\; And the sound of the springs is not for everyone, however it's nothing a roll of the right hand can't drown out...

Love the springer like everyone else, but I also noticed your front turn signals, looks sweeeeeet low down. I bet it looks great at night reflecting off them spokes

i believe the springer just bolts on&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; &nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&n bsp\\;&nbsp\\; just light grinding is involved for the steer stops and to put the springer higher into the neck&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; very easy mod

I dont know what kind of springer you have just bolted, on.&nbsp\\; all the original needs to be disconnected, propper tools are needed, brakes need to be aligned and properly spaced.&nbsp\\; the neck was not &nbsp\\;tappered and had to be set.&nbsp\\; Without a mill, I would have been screwed.&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
Sure in theory it's only one neck bolt, but you should try odering an unassembled springer, and put it together without instructions, or order a springer and see how many parts you didn't get. LOL
&nbsp\\;
I got lucky I bought my front end with the wheel and brakes assembled, but it aint that easy

That bike looks really great .... definately something to be proud of !!!&nbsp\\; A Springer front end just looks "right" on a Dyna to me ..... I think it's the symmetry of exposed springs in the front and rear. Great bike !!!
