I run the FXR bars with Vans grips on an ODI throttle tube. No need to trim but shorter on throttle side slightly, no concerns over loss of bar space.

 

Finally received my Joker Machine floorboards. Installed them along with brake arem and Thrashin peg as a brake pedal. Did the shifter lever a couple weeks ago. Before and after pics. Taking all the chrome off and I'm finally happy with the way the bike is turning out. Ordered a new BMC/Corbin seat yesterday... 6-8 week turn around time. UGH! Next week, I'm installing my Suspension Technologies front cartridges, changing the sliders and cow bells to black. After that, I should be about done with major stuff until winter. Can't wait to ride this thing once I'm done. Picked a bad time to do all this considering its prime summer riding time in NorCal. Haha

 

Just rebuilt front end on mine, easier than I expected. You will need a 12mm allen for the bottom drain and a 25mm allen for the top caps.

 

I absolutely love your bike! It almost looks like you raked the front forks. Supper clean look

 

Thanks. I've watched a few videos of how to and it looks pretty easy. Got the large allen sockets in the mail the other day. For me,, I require a 19mm. I'm just waiting for the rebuild kit to come on Monday. Everything is already apart and ready to be put back together. I can hardly stand it. Haha

 

Where did you get the rebuild kit from? HD? I am waiting for an Ohlins set (front and rear) to arrive and have looked around a little bit for the rebuild kit, but not sure about the right one.

 

Ebay. Seller, http://myworld.ebay.com/bluetag-sales, part http://www.ebay.com/itm/264753786465 HD part# 91700025A. When i went to my dealer they said the kit was only sold as singles. I emailed this seller and asked if it was sold as a pair and he said yes. So...we'll see.

 

 

Thanks for the info. I'm going to track that down.

 

I have a 2018 RKS. Looking to reduce weight and also looking to possibly go the performance bagger route instead of trading my bike in for a new Softail. Id rather keep it. But the roads where i live are Nothing but twisties.

What are the top things you guys recommend changing to drop a bunch of weight? Im thinking the stock exhaust for example has got to be pretty heavy. How much ligher are the 2 in 1 exhaust systems? Also I know Lithium batteries are much lighter just don't know if I want to go that route.
