Well as a new member speedy forgot to follow up his posts here but posted the info elsewhere.So being the good loyal fatboy discussion board member i will post here too.Some of you only check Fatboy discussion board so i didnt want you guys to miss.
Then came the AME chopper kit, plus 9 degree rake and 6" over bullet style forks with hidden axle. Good look!
www.chopper-kit-usa.com It rides real good, the rake and trail remain std, but the steering is slower due to the increased wheelbase. I was not happy with the harsh ride I was getting from the new forks, which was mainly due to way too much preload, could have just cut the spacers down reducing the preload and it would have been acceptable, but I put in progressive springs and gold valve emulators. After a test ride and some sag measurements I removed and adjusted the gold valves and adjusted the preload on the springs. After the next ride I was smiling, It`s all coming together. Other than that I have fitted Arlen Ness mirrors, Kuryakin curved number plate frame, I had some custom made 12" ape hangers made by Burleigh Bars, (not for from here). I think that`s about it at present, as far as the mods go. I`ll try posting those pics now.
Catch y`all later,
Speedy.
