I wonder why they don't just switch them out and just charge for labor. Did I get my mid controls back? No. Now they have a set of mid controls to put on somebody elses that whats them instead of forwards. GRRRR

I could agree more!&nbsp\\; More comfortable, better view from as you slide back in the seat.&nbsp\\; When combines with 21 abd 18 inch wheels it just a dramatic improvement.
&nbsp\\;
Peace,

ORIGINAL: don_q1971

Yeah what a difference. I put mine on on the 4th and love the way it rides now. I went the easy route and cut the shaft and didnt have to remove the cover.......WAY EASY!!!
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
But I agree with Harleypsych they should just make them that way... but then I guess they wouldnt get their $550
