I love springer accually the bike i wanted originally but couldnt offord it. the bigest difference is when your coming out of a real hard cornering but theres nothing negitive the front just pushes more and in a way feels good. the hardest thing is too keep an eye on the road and dont get fixaided on the springs. My mom just bought a 97

I have a 97 Bad Boy Springer lowered front and rear...and no issues.

I still think the Bad Boy was one of the coolest looking bikes HD ever made. I wish they'd bring it back again.[sm=smiley20.gif]

Only problem is I don't have one

I might even trade my fatboy for one... maybe not..
YOU CAN GET an 08 Screaming Eagle Springer still tho.. the CVO
if I had the cashola Id get one of them.. 110 motor.. forward controls, chromed everything just about, 6 speed, tombstone taillight, great front suspension
only thing about em I hear is the front brake is kinda weak.. that's np I'd slap on a aftermarket caliper

Tombstone tailight??????

not on the CVO springer, it's the tribar LED tailight

The 08 Springer CVO is a hot looking bike other than the front brake would you customize it ? Or leave it stock ?
