Did someone say Springer??? FWIW, you can't go wrong with an OEM front end if you can find one in good condition. I've seen the Paughco replica in the catalog. I like the look and it's probably a lot cheaper, but I do not know how they ride. It would be something I would look into though.

 

Springers are bad ***. Would love to have a set as well.
I was browsing the internet and came across this set.
I had to save a picture of it.

 

When I get off my springer and ride the eg the eg feels funny like it does not want to corner.After I ride it for awhile it feels normal again.Seems like the springer sits a little higher in the front,it will lay down pretty far in a turn.

 

Have you seen Tx_outlaw his bike has the best looking springer Ive seen

 

Love my springer. Kind of hard to find an OEM unit since they quit selling them in the parts catalog. OEM units are expensive if you can find one on E-bay but worth the extra money. I think they were about 2500.00 in the catalog.

 

I priced one back in March and was quoted close to $4000.00. I got a nice used one off eBay for $1700.00. Paughco, was of course my next choice. It never came to that.....And if the price had been to high, I had a complete Fatboy front end lined out for $1100.00. OEM or Paughco are the only ones I'd use.

 

Here are some notable companies that make springer forks:

1. American Suspension
2. Rolling Thunder Springer
3. Jeri's Springer Front End
4. Redneck Engineering

Tx_outlaw has the American Suspension forks (Black Dragon) on his bike and my son has the same one on his Wide Glide. I will be putting the American Suspension forks (Dragon Slayer) on my bike this winter with the rear tube painted the same color as my Rocker C pacific blue pearl. There are several springers to choose from besides OEM HD's that are top quality.

 

Thanks Chad! I like it. The shocks inside the springs are a nice plus to keep from pogo-ing down the road too.

 

I can't say thanks enough for everyone's opinion and help in pointing me in the right direction.

 

I'm the exact opposite, the first thing I do is take off as much chrome as I can, thus chrome forks are a definite no-go

I Love my Cross Bone Black springer !!
