Welcome, post some pics of that new King when you get a chance. I am also researching some lowered rear shocks, you might want to take a look at the Bitchin Baggers web site, just another option, ride safe.

Welcome From El Paso, Texas. About the paste kit for rear brake squeal, it works. Just installed new HD rear pads that came with the paste kit on my 08 Ultra, and no more squeal. Enjoy Your Bike and RIDE SAFE!

Congrats on your excellent choice! My brakes squeal every once in a while. My thought is that it is due to brake dust??? Can't help with the backing up as I have longer legs and pushing 230. I have found it is easier to push once it is put in neutral. There seems to be quite a bit of 'drag' when trying to move the bike while in gear with the clutch depressed- this when the bike is not running. Ride safe!
