it's almost as expensive as my bike though ::)

def worth the $ as far as i can deduce from the photos. trees and everything look solid. $2000 on special i think?

but i wish they made 2" or 3" under kits.

they do look spectacular but I just can't justify spending $400 MORE than I spent on my whole bike for a "chopper" kit. I beleive someone here a while back just put 4" over forks without changing the rake and got the same look. German Leo? The only "issue" that I recall having read about so far as the change was concerned was that the bike leans back (which is fine by me since the seat tends to push me forward as it is) and the oil level reading isnt acurate. In any case 14* look unwieldy to handle. I've loosely toyed with the 9* idea but like i said...was too expensive to justify. Can't even imagine trying to turn around in a crowded lot with the 18* kit. Plus look into local laws. In PA the max rake allowable and passable for inspection is 45* and I think the stock rake is 33* which would put you at 42* with the 9* kit.

I plan on a springer front for mine later... but it will be a short one to lower the whole ride..
