My Fat Bob Suspension Upgrade
First off Thanks you HD Forums for getting me more information than I can ever hope to absorb in one lifetime!!
After many hours of research here I have pulled the trigger on a new suspension configuration that I hope will be more than worth all of the pennies that it cost!!
I have an 2013 Fat Bob, decent suspension I suppose, but it starts wobbling a bit at 100mph & isn't as tight in the corners as I would like. Besides all that aesthetically those rear shocks just had to go. So... After much research on this forum I decided to go with Ricor Sport Tuned Rears, intiminators, Race tech Springs & RSD Adjusters in the front.
Shocks wont be here for 3-4 weeks so I figured I would start this thread now & update it as parts start trickling in & provide yet again another suspension thread on the forum

Ok got my first packages in the mail today!! RSD adjusters contrast cut so they match the Ricor rears. Also in my short time hunting these seemed to give the most adjustment with a bit over an inch. Also got the race tech 1.0kg/mm single rate springs they sent a bunch of stickers as well!!

It's a fun and beneficial upgrade - I went with a set of JRI rear shocks and Custom Cycle Engineering front fork truss. (https://www.customcycleengineering.c...sses-7/49mm-68) Have since taken them both off and will probably put up for sale as I have the bike for sale
