Hey everyone. I was wondering if anyone had experience or advice for making the "lowrider" Springer forks stronger? I LOVE the look it gives my bike (combined with the dyno apes I picked up), and it makes riding pretty smooth. Just as long as I'm going in a straight line, that is....
As for improvements, I've replaced the nuts with Nylocks where possible, capped off the bolt which goes thru the spring, put in a new stronger main support bolt, and considered praying to various deities.
Has anyone else made improvements to this style of forks? I know the look of them seems to have a polarizing effect on the forum, but I think they look badass.
Keep in mind I'm a fairly large dude (6'5", 300lbs), so anything in the vein of making them stronger would be appreciated!
Thanks everyone!
