Pretty common mod and term in the bagger world. Hoffman Design does the mods and has the parts. There are a couple other companies out there that do it also.

Witty Title

If you like the look of something on a bike you shouldn't let people on forums talk you out of it. Its your bike. Do what makes you happy and don't worry about these people.

I thought that my next upgrade on the bike would be a Legend's suspension, front and rear

my wife corrected me last night and reminded me that we need to get the tour pack for our next big trip

I looked into these hydraulic kits and it looked like you end up with a super stiff suspension....ain't no one got time for that

I still prefer how my r90's was set up, with a center stand....I have seen a few center stands for SGs, but I'm not sure if the weight would make it impractical to operate
