Have any of you installed springers on your bikes? If so pictures please, especially K9s. I am interested in changing mine but with so many different styles to chose from I would like oppinions from others and see what you have.

Hopefully someone will post a pic of a K9. This is on a '05 Ridgeback. Of course the tank has been changed and the front fender removed.

I had a Paughco Springer on my ole Shovelhead (have I ever memtioned I don't miss that old Shovel?) and man it rode like a bad truck and I swore I would never do one again. But that was before they started putting dampeners in the shocks so they probably ride a whole lot better now.

I still love the look of a nice springer and that Dragon one that Alhall had is one of the best looking ones out there....... until his accident!!

Not a Dog but I love my springer. I probably would not have bought this bike if it had a normal front end on it.

Ha ha ha, man I have hundreds of pics from my older days. Some like getting out of Jail in Cheyanne, WY back in the mid 80's!!

But they are all need to be scanned to digital. Guess I need to buy a scanner.

Holly Shit! I though I was the only one cleaver enough to come up with that idea on the front end of a bicycle. Mine was back in 1965 and no they didn't have camera's back then so no pics! :D
