That sounds very wrong. I am not familiar with that product but I would try reinstalling it and it is still not seated properly call the manufacturer.

Can you guys post a pic of your RKS with aftermarket seats? I have the extended reach saddleman step up seat and while I love the comfort, not sure about the look. Curious how the Road Sofa looks and other aftermarket seats.

Thanks fot the pics, nice upgrade, despite the risers I don't like, but it's a clubstyle build and it matches with that...
You now have a good protection similar as a Road Glide with another style, great job...

It's a beautiful color for sure. Is that a 19" front wheel and a stock size tire?

Also, how are you likin' the Thrashin' bits? I have the floorboards and foot controls but haven't installed yet. What Highway peg mounts are those? The HD short angled?

Thanks. Yeah that’s the stock 19” front wheel with a KW slicer fender. The thrashin boards are next level. Great surface area and the grip is unmatched on these. The highway pegs are the thrashin P54 foot pegs.

Yeah, I have the same pegs. I mean the mounts. Are those the HD angled mounted?
