My buddy just got one for his XL but hasnt installed it yet.
I'm alost sure I was reading just the other day about people who had them on the Iron and I guess it was pretty much "un rideable"
They said the kick stand was always bottoming out. I personally would like my Iron lower in the rear but not if it's gonna be scraping everywhere..
Yeah I'm trying to figure out my options as well.. I'd love to be an inch or two lower in the rear.
I think 12" is stock for the rear suspension and I saw a dude who put 11.5 and said that was even too low.. kinda crushed my dreams haha.
i just put on full steel lowering blocks on my 48 and lowered it to the 3in, i had to cut a little piece off of the belt cover and put 1 washer on each side but the ride is fine to me "thats just my opinion". I'm 5'7 and weigh 150 and havent had any problems so far..
