not a bad price,

AmericanClassicMotors sucks *** and should not be trusted

you will also need a new brake set up (or fab something to float with the front end)

possibley a new wheel depending on width

possibley new risers to attatch yr handlebars

in my quest for a springer front end to replace mine in my NT, I found this:

The price is OK, cheap, so I guess it can't be compared to an original HD...
Why did HArley stopped making them? Dam it!

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM AMERICAN CLASSIC MOTORS!!!!!!!! They are a company based about an hour outside of philadelphia who makes there money by flooding ebay with horrible cheap chinese made parts.
They do not know anything about real bikes, the bikes they make are complete garbage and so are there parts. They are in it strictly for the money. they will sell you a part saying it will fit on your bike when they dont even know anything about bikes. COMPLETE SCAM OF A COMPANY!!! Fu(k them!!!!!!
