His feedback is 100% and seems to be well deserved. Of the first pair he sent me, one was scratched up (I think due to shipping). When I told him about it via Email, he responded within an hour and offered me every option. 1) Cancel the deal, full refund. 2) Replace the scratched one. 3) Send me a new pair. I asked him to send me a replacement piece which he did on the very next shipping day. So...even though there was an issue--which I believe was due to shipping--he fixed it as fast as he possibly could which is all I've ever asked of my vendors.
Overall, I'm very happy with them.

Good job; looks great. I've had the forks off once, and it's that job that keeps me from going with the chrome sliders on my bike.

During re-assembly right after I put one of the caps back on (difficult because it's under spring pressure) I couldn't remember with 100% conviction that I put the spring in the right way with the tighter coils at the bottom. So, I took the cap back off and I'm glad I did because I had the spring in upside down. Just one of those things that makes me glad I did it, because I don't know that anybody else would have taken that extra step if they were in doubt about something.
Anyway, this is definitely a cosmetic upgrade, but it really does look much better IMHO.

Really looks great - just changed mine out also - mine was the right side that the allen bolt would not come out on, even went out and bought an air ratchet (good excuse) but no deal. impact driver did the trick.

I went with the full front end chrome kit from Harley (Zanottis) - which by the way includes everything.... except the replacement allen screws that they tell you in the directions you need to replace - so off to the dealer - right side one was pretty messed up by the time I got it out.
Anyway - bike looks great - looking formward to final pictures with the new tins

Only thing I would add while its still down is you might want to stop by the dealer and get the chrome front wheel spacers - what with everything else done - not a big deal but its the details that make it
once again very nice and it is great when you do it yourself

I also picked up some chrome spacers for the front wheel, but I'm not putting them on until my tins come back from paint.
