Nice....how was rebuilding the front forks? much problem with them? Hill country cycles have them already built that you just fill with oil and bolt on. little pricey though

the front wasnt too bad the lowering kit fron Harley was 100 bucks came with the springs and rods. set em in a vice and pressed the springs in. only had to have the dealership press the new seals cuz we didnt have that tube looking tool. only charged me 10 bucks.just took our time.

lol.... that was a sticky subject for a while but its all good now... I've only have had my shotgun shocks on for about three weeks and boy they are nice... easy to install, ride height and stiffness are adjustable on the go... I dealt directly with JD and got it at a fair price..
