Being new to BD

[Wideboy04]

Being new to Big Dog, I will have some questions silly to some.
Big Dogs are not popular around here so knowledge is limited.
Being mine is a 2003 Chopper I hear some of it is EVO style.
Are the Derby and Point covers EVO?
Are the bullet turn signal lenses Harley?
The clutch is very stiff. Harley makes a reduced effort assembly
that connects to the cable in the right tranny side. Any of them
fit?
I sent Scott, a member here I think, an email about modifying
the seat. I'm a little short of the forward controls. The Push
seats are a little pricey and I only need about 1 1/2".

Thanks, Jim

:roll: Probably true nowadays, since the reduced effort clutch and
newer bikes.

Might want to think again on the cvo harley clutch pull. It ain't exactly like spreading butter

I got a new clutch cable and was amazed at how weathered my stock one was. It's not even flexible anymore. As cheap as a new one is, it's worth it. IMO

Ordered a Barnett high efficiency clutch cable, ditched the braided
and got the black. That coupled with the reduced effort ramps for
$20 I figured it should make some considerable difference. The
braided cable was so stiff and kinked it was hard to roll it up.

What reduced effort ramps for $20? Got a link?

 

[jjarkys]

I thought they were $40. I've seen them on bakers site. Assuming he was referring to the 9 plate ramps.

HD part# 25604-00A and 25605-00A. The complete kit is around $40+.
I just got the ramps, don't want the weaker spring or the bearings. I
don't think this is a miracle cure but should be a noticable improvement.

LOL, you tough guys keep your stiff clutches. Whatever you do
don't install a Barnett High Efficiency cable and HD Reduced
Effort ramps because it will be to sissyfied for you'ns. The pull
is so easy your ladies would love it.
