After getting HC's Wide Glide I noticed mine seems to have been lowered
yeah, maybe......i cant really tell from looking at the pics.....if so, it looks like a very small difference in height.
i do like the pipes on HC's over the ones that are on yours tho!

Hey HDWG,


Are your passengers pegs even ?? I mean , I know the one over the pipes is extended out further , but on your ride (or HC's) is it also forward ?? My wife just now told me to check (we just got back in today) because it felt like she was twisted and her right leg was further forward than her left. I'll look at mine tomorrow , but was wanting something to compare with

I overlayed her WG over yours, lined them up by battey box and rear wheel, and dropped her opacity so you can see through hers. You can see some subtle differences there.

My forks seem to have alittle more rake.....and are lower.....look at the middle, fenders seem to be different highths?? I do not know, the pics may not do it but, looking at them in person there just seems to be differences that we are trying to figure out
O-k Sean time to get out the degree finder and tape measure , best way to tell is to look up the specs for both bikes, this should show you any differences if any. BTW all I seen was a red X.

Heather did you get any saddle time this weekend? If so how do you like the WG compared to the Sporty?

In person it looks to have more of a difference but, I guess not!!!
