How too lower a 08 harley ultra classic

Question

just bought taller than my old bike would like too get down 2 inches if possible

Answer 1

flaten the tires

Answer 2

just go to any shop and order the lowering kit.that simple.

Answer 3

As others have mentioned they sell lowering kits that will do the job. The trick is it will stiffen the ride up and if you are a light person the bike will bounce you around some on rough roads.

When I worked as a Harley mechanic I had to test ride a lot of bikes. While the seats on the baggers are nice and comfortable I felt they forced my legs out too much when stopped in traffic. A couple years ago I heard something about a specially designed seat that help out those with shorter legs. Maybe that might be a cheaper fix for you.

Added: Just checked out www.corbin.com and found the following item:

http://www.corbin.com/harley/baggers/hdf...

On the page it says: "COMING SOON: For riders of varying stature, we have added a "Close" model Dual Touring saddle. This particular seat model has all the features and benefits of the standard Dual Tour, but is built with seating closer to the bars for easier reach. We've also made the nose a bit narrower to give easier ground reach at stop signs."

Hope this helps.
