Lowering Crossbones
Lowering Crossbones
Tried a search a while back, but got a lot of weird info. What ways can one go about lowering the CrossBones' rear? I know it is already lower than stock softails. Will the lowering "kits" like the bolts and what not still work? What all methods have you guys used?

I have an 07 Softail Custom and lowered it 2 inches with the bolts. Looks great but rides FIRM. I rather like it but can see where it might be a little rough for those who like a smooth ride.

I got a cheap $20 set off Fleebay for a very temporary fix until I get my RSD rear fender kit. At that time, I will be hitting up Dr. V-Twin for an air ride system.
