Default real easy lowering kit on my FatBob

A buddy helped me to install them took 1 hour for a couple of guys not handy with tools!. It gives the bike a more “slammed” look. I like how it rides and it is 1 3/4" lower.

I am somewhat concerned about the change in geometry as you are changing the angle of the shocks but so far it seems to ride great. Basically the way these work
is that you move the lower mounting point back approximately 2 3/8”.



The sellers name was hellbend he has a 99.9 rating and has sold a lot of these.

I have those in black. I don't think of myself as a 'heavier' rider but I did find the 1.75" drop just a bit much so I raised the height up .25" with the rubber squares from a stock seat. I also had to increase the spring pre-load to #2.

To lower the front I slid the forks up the trees 1".

Very interesting inexpensive solution to dropping the bike.

Did the install require 2 guys, a lift, or could one guy do this job without a lift?
