Bolt On Sporty:

Hey Warren,

Great article on the chopper kit. You already put a picture of my scooter on your Sportsters of Summer page, But what I forgot to tell you is I have the Seegercycle Chopper Kit kit installed on it. 13degree kit with 8" over tubes. I have put 3500 miles on her since the install and have had no problems. The ride and handling is great.  I'm sending a couple more pics of my scoot. I'm very interested in how your ride to Sturgis went and also how people reacted to the bolt-on kit. Ride Safe!

Road Work:

So how does it ride?

Well, about 100 miles outside of Newcastle, Wyoming the road gets strange - it goes about 100 yards and then has a big connection bump. This goes on for about 70-80 miles. I hit this mess at 75 mph and never missed a beat. The Seegercycle Chopper Kit front end did not "pogo" and remained rock solid at each impact.

If you go to Colorado Springs in Colorado and point yer scooter towards Denver, you've got about 65 miles of GROOVED PAVEMENT. 70 mph had the Seegercycle Chopper Kit front end tracking BETTER than the stock HD front end. No lie, I feel better with this thing on than stock.

I road the worst rain storm of my life from Mt. Rushmore to Hill City, SD. It wasn't your roostertail you had to worry about - it was your wake. The rain was sideways and painful. The front end tracked like a champion and I never felt "slippy". No problemo.


Watch Video of the Seegercycle (FS) Chopper Kit Front End Installation.

NOTE: To clear up any confusion - there are two bolt on chopper kits. The one from Seegercycle shown here (also known as the "FS" kit) and one manufactured by AME. The FS kit is aluminum and the AME is chrome steel. You can visit them online at http://www.chopper-kit-usa.com
