    Sure doesn't look lowered in those pics...shorter shocks is the best way to lower it IMO...also in that add it says it's 89" but the bore & stroke listed don't come out to 89"...I've never heard of a 4.3" stroke for HD but 3.5"bore x 4.25 stroke is whats in 80"evo's and shovels...so looks to me like a few mistakes in the add...

    Don't care about the engine as this isn't the bike that I am looking at. I thought it looked that it sits high as well but then look at the shock position and not so sure. I was looking at this as a comparison to the one that I am buying.

    Well, once you get the bike you can do anything you want with it. All the stuff you don't like, change. You still have another bike you can ride in the meantime. Starting with a "donor bike" is the smart way to customize or chop it.

    I agree, I would never buy a shovel unless I had another bike to ride. With this one, I can take my time with and have a lot of fun.:D
