Actually, Jimmy, I'm lookin' to go the other way.Bar
I agree with you. When I'm "cruising" at 60 - 70 (Heh Heh), I'd like the engine RPM's a bit lower. Is that what you're after as well?
You got it!Duuuhhhh
I see. L O W E R Ratio........Better acceleration off the line is what you're after.
I do a lot of highway cruising here in AZ, and would like the RPM's down a tad. I still think it will pull hard through the gears. IMHO.
You can reuse the bearings, you just need to replace a few seals. Not that bad of a job really and the result it worth it. I can't remember what thread it was in but if you search for a chrome dust cover you should find it. Narrow your search to between 2010 and 2012. I went the other way and had my stock dust ring chromed. I think it was about $70 from memory. The company who did it for me in Santa Ana closed down but you could check with my new chromer L&M chrome also in Santa Ana CA. If you want the contact details of the person I deal with let me know and I'll post it here.I have seen the chrome cover advertised before. Owner of advertiser told me it was not very good and I probably wouldn't like it. I was going to have it chromed, but decided the cost of tearing the diff completely apart, and replacing all bearings etc. plus chroming cost would be too much. I ordered the correct paint, base, and clear and have pretty much decided to paint it. Looking at the cover again, I think I might just waste the money and order one, can't hurt. Someone mentioned getting a chrome dust cover? I haven't seen one. Any idea where, or if this available? I purchased this 2012 Fury used in September, and like most of us have already far exceeded the value. LOL I'm just trying to decide now how difficult it will be to get the diff separated from the u-joint. This is my first time working on a motorcycle, and I've found it a bit intimidating. Thank you for your response.
Thank you very much. I would appreciate the information. I went ahead and ordered the chrome cover for the diff, thought I'd at least give it a shot. Chrome dust cover would be really nice. I'm having the wheels chromed, the kickstand, the calipers and brackets, sway bar I guess it is, and they are polishing the rotors. I have the spike air cleaner set-up in chrome, and managed to get the left side chrome cover to match with the matching spike kit. Now I need to find out what to get for filters to replace the ones on it, I have 1 black and 1 brown. Blue would be great. The bike also has an FSD exhaust (love it) Chin spoiler with nice metal cover, and some other chrome touches. The seat is a custom made solo blue alligator design with FURY embroidered on the back of it in the right script. The bike is in pieces all over one side of my garage right now. I will post pictures as soon as I get everything back and put together. I'm looking for something different in grips and pedals. I want to have it air brushed with something on tank and some colors of real fire on the fenders and chin spoiler. I also just put the lowering shock spring from Low and Mean on it. I want different mirrors and some sort of mini chrome turn signals. I like the looks of the two led strips under the fender, but I really don't think it would be safe. Any leads or suggestions from anyone would be GREAT.You can reuse the bearings, you just need to replace a few seals. Not that bad of a job really and the result it worth it.

Resell the lowering spring if/when you go air suspension.. I'm sure there is a member here that would buy it..I saw the air suspension kit AFTER I had paid a chunk for the lowering spring and installed it. For the difference, I would have probably went the air. Oh well, only money. I might decide to change. I'm leery of the LED strips being visible enough, even though I think they look great. I've also read quite a bit about the lights failing in small sections rather quickly.
