Default My 02 Ultra dropped 2"

I bought this kit from Road 6 Customs on ebay. It was $44.95. It took me all of about 20 minutes to install. I rode it new years eve and new years day for a total of about 200 miles and everything is doing great. I love the lower COG. Pictures arent great but all i have is the camera on my droid.

Looks real nice, any problems with dragging things in corners?

I just put the same kit on my 2009 FLHTP - so far I love it.
I pumped the air shocks up to 30# of pressure on the recommendation of the dude at R6C - rides fine with no dragging around corners (and I also have the 1" extensions on my floorboards - moving them out & away from the frame).
I'm going to keep an eye on tail light wiring just in case, but I'm glad I made this change.
(only took me 17 minutes - but I had some mighty strong coffee in my system)

looks like he's selling the same thing on ebay for a bit less for the 02 and newer bikes.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ADJUS...item5d2ce2f434

a bit more for the older bikes, though

Thanks, It drags the boards a little bit more than before but its not in every corner. Only whenever im going fast and really leaning it hard.
