Thanks! I haven't done anything too crazy yet since my rear tire is still pretty new. But so far she's been a blast ! Definitely prefer this set up over stock.

I thought so too at first and almost bought a set of Speed Merchant triples. Luckily I had some doubt and brought out a caliper. Was glad I did, cause those triples aren't cheap. lol
I had a custom set made by CognitoMoto. For the same price as Speed Merchant, they offered a custom tree with a new steering stem and bearings. Good quality stuff I'd recommend to anyone looking to go that route. Let me know so I can hit them up.
My next issue to tackle, is to find a way to fabricate a front fender that will compliment the build....

Your front fender shouldn't be too hard to figure out.
Seems like a few are doing the HCP risers too. I have the 9.5" w/ Lucky Daves bar.

Cool. I almost swapped my trees and put cartridges in the forks but I went with an ODC Monza 2.0 (Mid Glide) inverted frontend. Still waiting for it, shipping from Italy.

And it definitely shouldn't be. I have a few ideas I'd like to try. We'll see how that goes. lol
The HCP risers just look and feel solid, so I can see why most would buy them. Happen to have a pic of yours?

I also wanted to go the ODC route, but they are just too much for me at the moment. I am glad that I'm a little different from the trend at the moment. lol

Here's my thread. I've already changed my mind on a few things though.

You might see a few ODC frontends out there but not many. LOL

True that. I think I'm the only one running my set up so far. Next up is some legend's drop ins for me.

I do plan to put something there eventually. Just a matter of when and with what. lol And I haven't heard of any inverted forks leaking due to that.

Not sure about Legends though, unless you are talking cartridges.
Did the stock guards not fit back on?
