do you need a spring compressor to do so?

 

here is the link to the thread for lowering a softail for 20 bucks.

Yes, needs apes. But maybe I'm biased.

 

I mocked up a set of 16" standard apes and a set of Nash Midget Gimps 16" apes. Wasn't to thrilled. I am going to stay with bars under 9" high. I have a design based off a set of Builtwell Keystones.

 

Yeah, that's workin'. Just needs something with a little height to set it off from its brethren. Looking good already!

 

I think a mini ape hanger would look good on a blackline, sweet looking ride the mods are coming along nicely keep it up.

thanks. I was just talking to Ashley over at Lepara about your bike. She had sent me a pic from your thread here of your bike with a Lepara seat on it. I am going to have them send me a LXE-007 seat pan to modify to what I want, and send it back to be covered. Also have them do some embroidery on the seat skin. The High End Badger solo seat fits pretty well. Just the front mount tab is about 1" to short. As for the rear mount I will use industrial velcro. I just dont like th fiberglass seat pan that the High End seat came with. I think I am going to make a set of custom Keystone bars. I kind of like the feel of the stock Frisco style bars the bike came with.

 

Thats gonna look good, your gonna love the Le Pera seat too the quality is great and the seat is really comfortable. Mines had the gel insert in it and its good even on long rides.
