I had the screamin eagle fork oil put in to stop the front suspension from bottoming out and have not had any scraping either, also just go a bit slower round the bends help.

Will be at the dealer on the 29th, (fully booked until then!!) will ask for them to adjust the suspensions and at the same time ask about the fork oil. Will revert with verdict!

I didn't know there was a lower softail than the 05 sefb. What I can tell you is my bike corners great, sure the boards scrape but they pivot and you can ask anyone (hell ask hubard how that bike looks while flat tracking through the dragon tail). I did install the Ricor kit in the front end due to the sharp bottoming and harsh ride, the Ricor's fixed that but didn't help the cornering. I actually love scraping the boards, I do not abuse the bike (maybe some think so) but I do ride it hard sometimes and scraping is part of it. My seeg has much more room to lay it over but the sefb is much more fun to ride hard on the switchbacks......

I just lengthened my shocks one turn. I'll see how it goes. It only scrapes with wife on back. No comments please!!
