Default Draggin Bagger???
I'm sure I've probably missed the post somewhere but can someone who rides a Road King Custom with the new Draggin Bagger system measure/post the distance from the ground to the bottom of the fender with the bike upright and all the air dumped out of the shocks ?

Thanks ahead of time,
Jarman

Very close to 5" of travel AT the rear fender tip....about 1 inch higher than the stock Profiles, and almost 4 inches lower.

When you say slammed do you mean slammed on exhaust pipes

That's called the "double slam" or the HI-LO slam...ya got a draggin' slam with NO air and a pipe slam with FULL air. Either way, ya always got a slam goin' on...in the middle, you're just sorta-slammed![>:] How @!#*&$ cool is that?

This is probably a stupid question Bountyhunter, but with all the air out of the shocks can you still ride the bike or is it bottoming out hard? Thanks, Stafford
