I was thinking of going with an AME or Seeger kit. How do you like your bike since you pit the AME kit on? What's your opinion of the AME kit? Did you install it yourself or have someone else do it?

I love my AME, They are not cheap, The kit is high quality steel, the chrome is excellent, I did my own install, it took about ten hours. Handles much better than stock even at high speed. I looked at both Seeger and AME and my decision was based on the fact that AME had the Wide Glide kit for 49mm tubes.
Ken and Greg at AME are good folks and will answer any questions you might have.
If you have any more that I can help with let me know.
