Got any pics of the scrape damage so we can see how bad it is?

Yeah RSS has it on his and has to adjust for long or short runs... It seems to be to much of a pain for me to get it... Other than parked I really do not see much a difference... But that is my opinion

They need to hurry up with that air shock so it can be slammed when parked and raised all the way back up for when riding to avoid the scrapes. L&M are you reading this?

On a scale of 1-10 how do you rate this kit?
for what the kit is ment for i rate it an 8/9.this bike was never ment to be ridden as a sport bike.with this kit i think i can ride next to anyone and look good.i rode 1560 miles and enjoyed all of it ,even scrapeing on the tail.i did jack the pressure up on the spring and on the danper tube.that helps a lot.when dun drop back down some for a soft ride home. ride safe

haha, Yeah we here you loud and clear. Can't tell you how much work goes into just making something like this work. But will it be finished YOU BET!!!!!

Just curious, are you scrapping the frame or just the pegs? Cause those stock pegs has like a 1.25" extension on the bottom. I doubt your scraping the frame, unless your Nicky Hayden.
Get some different pegs or remove the stop on the bottom. Let's see some pic's!!!!

Scraping the frame... it's from the dips... still love the feel and ride though, scraps I can deal with... they are on the bottom ;)

It's not as much of a pain as it would be on another bike... it's just a hand crank... not really that big of a deal really knucklehead... Also, everybody else says they noticed a difference but you... but, you were messing around on your bike as much as I was so blah :p whatever ;)

My fury is gone now but to answer your question, before I got rid of it, the feelers on both sides were bent completely horizontal and the entire under side of the frame was scraped all to hell. If it's still at the dealership when I get there saturday morning for the first service on the new bike, I'll get some good pics for you.

Why did you get rid of the Fury? Because it didn't turn like a sport bike??? Man we could scrap the frame too, but it just wasn't necessary to turn the motorcycle that hard or fast, it's just a cruiser. Maybe you live in the hills?

Nah, I just got rid of the fury because I had an opportunity to trade it in on a custom bike that I liked better. (see sig photo or my album) The footpeg feelers were bent from the turns but the frame scrapes were mostly from potholes and speedbumps. As much as I'd like to say I ride like Nicky Hayden, I'm just not quite at that level. Close, but not quite.... :cool: I just got back from the dealership where I traded the fury in at and it was already picked up by the new owner. Sorry, I wasn't able to get the pics for you.
