I would appreciate your prays and support for me today. :) I am starting my project on my wife’s bike today, I am installing new pair of 440 rear progressive 1 ½ lowering shocks , pair of progressive 1 ½ lowering front fork springs and some Phat Riser II ,Memphis Shade fats 21” with quick release mount kit and lowers. :eek:<O:p</O:p
On her 2007 Honda Sabre 1100, this should be strait forward with no problems but you never know when things can go sideways so easy? :eek:<O:p</O:p
Thanks :choppersm<O:p</O:p

I am one of you now with this knowledge.:hmm2: ONE more smaller project to do now looking around the shop for some scrap flat iron, square tubing and 1” angle. Go to building a jig took most of the day but I did it finally toward the evening I was able to raise the bike in the air with easy, i replaced the rear shocks took all of 30 minutes. Next day replaced the Phat riser II and the Memphis Shade21"fats with quick disconnect. <O:p</O:p
