Puttin on the 412 HD progressives today. Can't wait to get home and put em on. I have a brand new set of 412 11" standards that have not even been removed from the package if someone is interested. 179.00 shipped. They are all black. I asked for the HD and the dude sends me standards. Cost to much to ship back, pay restocking fees and ebay fees, so I'm just selling them out right and losing a little less $ than returning them.
It's fly fishing equipment. so there is no lunky takle box.

Gotta Go Fishin
Hey I bought a special rig to take on my bike. It's a collapsible bait caster in a box about 12"x8"x3". Fishin is serious buisiness, then when you add ridin the bike, what could be better. Now, If I could just figure out how to haul my golf clubs!

Yeah I have a similar rig I got a long time ago but I don't like using the rod anymore (it started to come apart sometimes in mid cast) .
I have to figure out a safe way to transport my fly fishing rod. It collapses in 2 but that still leaves about a 4.5 ft rod tube sticking out my backpack. I'll figure something out. And when I do I'll post pics

i put road king shocks on. cheap as dirt on ebay. awesome ride. i thought it would ruin the look of the bike but i still get plenty of compliments from random people. i think the rear fender has the right look... the suspension length doesn't really mean much. try the cheaper solution first and if you don't like it sell the shocks and get something shorter.
gotta add this: lots of people comment on the rubber boots that come on the road king shocks. they always say things like "is that old-time suspension too hard soft?". when i explain those are modern air shocks they usually say "harleys are so cool!"
