Shorter fork tubes on 2009 softail custom and nighttrain?
I was looking at 2009 models on the HD website the other night and either the pictures are seriously deformed (compared to the 08 pics) or else Harley Davidson has substantially shortened the upper fork tubes and perhaps lengthened the handlebar risers..... To my eyes, they look kinda strange!
yeah, the website looks like they slammed the front end of the Train, but not in real life. Don't know whats up with the pictures, they look kinda like 3D models to me, not real bikes.
