my brother and i got home last night and figured we would go meet my dad for a Harley run... well we missed the harley run but met up at the bar... along the way we pulled over to get directions and i snapped these pics... was an awesome ride, was very suprised how much love the HD crowd gave the fighter!

on the way home i took the chop and my brother rode the fighter... he was grinning ear to ear at the handling and overall ride... we where blasting though the Highway last night! man the chop is a blast to ride, forgot how much fun it was, have not rode it since we finished it last

Big props from Charm City. True talent to create such a piece of work as that. I love the Fighter look, but still rockin' the plastics for now. Great Job!! ...and keep rockin' the mohawk ...it's all you.

well my buddy wanted to take his girl out for a spin on the fighter this weekend! so i lifted the bike up (has up to a 3 in adjustable dog bone on it) have had it slammed 2 inchs since i build the bike so the wife can ride it... WOW this thing really really handles better! just a blast to ride!!!
also added some more LEDS but i will have to get some pics of that later... got the front end of the bike lit up better for night

Instead of lowering it 2" only at the back(50mm - that's a LOT!), try dropping it 1" each front and back, see how the missus gets on with that.

Hi,
well that will give her a far better ride handling wise,than to just dropping the back end only for sure. :thumbsup:

ya i tried that first, she is only 5'3 so she is tiny. we ended up having to cut new spacers and do 2 inches in front and 2 in rear. it is no big deal really take me 5 min to bring the back end back up and the 2 in in front is not the end of the world on handleing (as i thought it would be) only problem is i made a new kick stand when i slammed it, when i lift that sucker it is leaning hard! ha ha ha thanks for the tip though man

Didn't you put a stabilizer on this? What did you use and roundabout cost? With no fairings, dirty bars, not much of a windscreen, and a more upright position.... it can really get beastly on the e-way with the wind and all.

Thanks, lmk. It handles alot different when there's not as much weight centered over the forks.
