Lowering questions

[Jim/Maine]

Set the rear to 2.( worked best for me before I bought Hagons..I'm 242Lbs in shorts.)( better handling solo) 4 if pillion on. Lower the frount end by loosening the fork clamps & bringing the forks thru 15-20mm.That will not only lower the bike, but sharpen up the handling.

How would you compare your Hagon's to the 440 (i am assuming those are the ones you had?) ????

Just realized, the Rocket III Touring has a seat height of 28.7". The Rocket III Roadster, which I have, has a seat height of 29.5".

Yes but the touring seats won't fit the Roadster or standard/classic models. You can try a Classic touring seat or the single seat with add on pillon sits even lower!!!

I prefer the Hagons.. more adjustable , feel great Progressives arn't bad... but IMo Hagons nitro's are better.

I can understand the height to ground distance issue.
I'm 6' tall an wear 34x36 Levis.
My youngest son is 6'6" and wears 40x32 Levis.
Long torso, short legs.
I have to look up to him but my pants are 4" longer,
doesn't make alot of sense, but that's how it is.
