Default Help! Black HD Inverteds
I'm installing the HD inverted front forks. Any of you have pics of what it should look like viewed from the seat? The top of the forks don't come all the way to the top but the "rough"area for the bottom triple trees lines up. Is this right?

Chaz, they're not PM grips. They're the cheap Avon PM copies that cost half as much.

It is a great view, ain't it?

Thanks rthomp. I guess mine must be sitting right since the caps will slide in the top like yours. I should be done within a few days, I'll post pics then....can't wait!
