yeah lets hook up.
working on fb's solo rack today
need to figure out a two up rack for my tour pak.
also need some progress on the batwing fairing

I'd like to get some and Expeirment with different Red Powder Coats. I just don"t want to have to drain the Oil everytime I pulled the Forks Off. Guess I better buy a Manual.

Yup.

Eleviating that much weight off the front end might make strapping the bike down to the jack a good idea.

If those threads don't hit the kickstand, then leave them alone. Don't fix it if it ain't broke.

If you want to experiment with red powdercoat, then you'd better drain the fork oil. Baking the powdercoat will probably not agree with then fork oil.

Thanks for posting those pic's on the Jack. I did a very similar mod back in 1999 when I had a Super Glide Sport. Bought a FLHT in 2002 and rode it till November 2012. Turned the pads around on the Jack.
Late Nov 2012 sold FLHT and bought a 2013 FLD.
Now its time to turn the jack around again. I had forgot about this.
Only put 80 miles on the FLD b/4 I had to bag it for the winter.
Penalty for living in the north east.
