What are the options for lowering the rear of a 06 softail?

 

Guys in here that have them swear by the shotgun shock. Pricey is what I understand. You can get a lowering kit from Dead Creek in either 1 1/2 or 2". Or you can get lowering bolts for about $20 on EBay.

 

Shotgun. There is no substitute. Period.

 

Its on my list

 

I would love to do the Shotgun shock but at $1250, just can't do it right now. To me, for anyone that wants to lower it for under $100 and ease of installation, you can't go wrong with the Dead Creek Cycles lowering kit.

 

Shotgun is on my list as well

 

A fat girlfriend??

Im into skinny girls my self tho as my wifes about 120 so im gunna go with the dead creek lowering kit this year. sounds easy to install compared to the ebay kits that seem to need some parts pressed into place.

Shot guns on my list also but the way i wana do it is going to be a heavey mod so ill leave it till next wintr

 

Be aware my bike rode like a rigid after lowering it. Now I have a shotgun. Rides amazing

 

You had the lowering bolts though, right?

 

Yep burley slammer
