what do you want to do to your bike?
you want lower and sleeker?
shave and fill the rear fender (fill pass. seat mounting holes, taillight hole, and license plate mounting holes) so you have a smooth rear fender, run a side mounted taillight/license plate combo and slam it down with some 11" shocks.
done and done.

well for starters im looking to lower the rear end and move up to a 200 or 240 change to side mount plate and lights and shave down the back fender and go with better shocks.. ad a sissy bar for looks and maybe a detatchable passenger seat for the wife to ride with for starts..then move onto exhaust and maybe the front end

I did Progressive shocks and a 180 rear tire. 200 will fit, but you will have to remove your turn signals (https://www.hdforums.com/forum/membe...ore-paint.html).

a 200 will fit without any mods (after you move the turn signals - that is what I have on mine) but a 240 will require a new swing arm and you will have to get rid of the struts as well. May limit your ability to have any 2-up riding without SERIOUS mods.
