The good thing about lowering it is that it will no longer look like a raked out dirtbike!

Thanks crazy, had you lowered your deuce before the mods. WOW now I'am taking advise from a crazy man

thebest, I know it will look better but the guard comes very close to the swingarm with any movement.

I agree 100%, in fact, I believe that lowering a wide glide requires trimming the front of the rear fender, scary huh?! [:-]

Had it lowered 2" before I put my Heartland kit on.
No problem at all.
