Default Trike tank lift

Put the 1.5 deluxe lift today.
Had a few parts left over?
Kevin did a nice job with lift.
But I have 2 rubber tips and 2 fender washers left over?






I know the head covers now show and I have to shine EM up !
Also the mustang seat fits better with lifted tank ! Didn't expect that.

Thanks
Hap

Need to clean top of motor now

Nice job you will like the changes it makes to wind. Makes for a alround better ride. factory bolt covers can't be used not sure about body wasters, I checked my lift for tightness a few times after to make sure it was secure, and it never loosened at all. ride safely fearless

Looks nice! Any chance I can get a straight shot of the tank emblem? I'm looking for a nice one for my FLHX.

Nice, I like to way it lifts the tank off the heads. Guess I need to go the same route with my '14'

Sorry, I meant from a couple steps back. Looking for that perfect look, the staggered script doesn't do much for me

Last thursday I installed the deluxe 1 1/2 tank lift, did help with the wind. I had to reset the road pegs, I think due to the change in the seat position. Jim

The more I look at the lift ... the more I like it ... not wild about the hoses, but I like being the heads and really like the less wind thing. Anyone know if they make a 1" lift?
