The body is off

[TPost]

The body came off really easy. Not very heavy, just kinda awkward. Had to do a little tilting and wiggling to get the rear valance to clear the after most cross member.
I'm doing a shock upgrade with lift kit. Also going to add Vance and Hines slip-ons.
So much easier with the body off. I can work on a stool verses laying on the garage floor. Definitely worth the extra effort to pull the body.

Very cool, looks just like my tri glide.LOL

Yes, I agree. With body off, it's much easier to work on the various components.

Its easy to remove the body, plus you get a chance to see whats going on under there. the shock bolts are usually so tight from the factory you need a 6 ft pipe to loosen them, post a picture of the new shocks & mufflers with the body off.

Yeah, waaaay easier with the body off!! All the bolts were crazy tight! The hex heads that hold on the e-brake bracket were stupid tight. It also gave me easy access to chase all the threads before putting it all back together. I'm going to install the slip ons tomorrow morning.

What slip ons were you using before or was it stock?

I'm adding Vance and Hines. It has the stock Harley slip ons.

How many miles on this ? Your tires look new

Slip ons are installed. Just need to clean up all the road dust and put the body back on.

It's a 2016. When I bought it it had less the 1100 miles on it. I bought it through a dealer. They replaced all 3 tires when they got it in their shop.
