Slide it out enough to access bolt but enough to prevent twisting, only works on the one side, granted. Or leave the fender on, or use a screwdriver in the caliper mount - lots of ways to prevent twisting but using the tree as a clamp makes it easier I find.

Changed out the internals on a 2013 Road King a few years back to progressive. At that time, the motorcycle was only about a year old and I could not believe the dirty black oil that came out of the fork on one side. Definitely a good idea to service your suspension every few years if nothing else to clean the internals and replace the fork oil.
I really like the yellow passing lamps on your motorcycle. Looks very retro, I might have to find a set for my Ultra!

Thanks sir. They amber lights make a huge difference. People see them because they stand out from the norm. I looked for a quality light already in amber and could not find any. Several members here suggested the stick on film. It actually works very well. Here is a link to the thread I started.

I'm just amazed by folks like you that take on a job like that and do the research that it takes to learn how to do it. On a scale of 1-10, my mechanical ability is about
-50! You said it looks and sounds intimidating but it's really very easy. RIGHT! LOL! Well, it looks REAL intimidating to me. Great job you did there Cosmic!!

I actually thought of you as you mentioned some time back you would like to get rid of the brake dive if I remember correctly. This kit does help with that a lot.
As for jumping into to stuff like this I have never been afraid to. But I have learned a lot of lessons the hard way (I.E. Costly).
Thanks

No not required at all. I was doing other work including relocating the Clearwater spots and wiring, as well as detailing the top of the engine. It does make removing the ignition cover easier, but that can be done with the tank on.

Not to sidetrack the thread, Think long and hard about that. Start with lightening up the Ultra with a tour pack quick release. I regret selling my SGS.
