I’ve done 750 miles now on my 07 XL1200 Low and am making a - long - list of things to do to it.
Having just been on a blast around Lincolnshire with my mates on sports bikes I need to work on the handling.
How do I identify whether or not my bike has the original dampers on it? And is the “Low” achieved by the dampers fitted? So if I go for, say, Biturbo’s will it jack the bike up a little? I was watching a YouTube the other day about someone who fitted aftermarket dampers and who said they sharpened the steering. I did wonder if they had actually altered the fork trail by being a little higher?
One other related query. The exhaust is grounding on right hander. Is there any easy fix for this? Other than the above.
