Lowering rear end 1" and just using triple Tree down 1"

[Brentman]

Hey People....I'm getting a 1" AMB lowering Kit for my 2008 Dyna...which will lower the hind end 1"... I lowered the front end by 1" by using the triple tree...looks a little hokey...but the windshield covers it...so once I get used to the look...it should be Ok.

I wondered if it would cause me any problems??? Handling/clearance...being laughed at...( which don't bother me !!!) etc.

Thanks
Brentman

I have the 1.75 lowering blocks on my 06 FXDCI, 2 inch tank lift, 1/4 inch front fork slid up into the tripple tree, heavier fork oil, true track, super brace, love the look, and the handling is GREAT.
I haven't tried the Pregressive front fork springs. Don't want anything too stiff.

I went with 11" Progressive 412's in the rear of my Bob. I don't like the look of the front tubes sticking out the trees so I will be going with Progressive lower kit for the front. The bike stands up a little more on the stand, just need to watch when you park on any slopes.

11" progressives on rear with 1/2" drop on the tree. looks good, handles good. No problems.
