    Hey Ricky... Great Video.... I can't think of a single item as an upgrade as WORTH IT than these Fox Adjustable Shocks. The stock Shocks are sadly JUNK.....Now I know not everyone has the $1k to spend on these...but there are mid level priced alternatives such as those piggy backs you featured. .. available at the Dealership .....but As with anything get the Best upgrades You can afford. I am fortunate and I special ordered my 22 Scout Bobber #darkvaderbobber .... with Top of the line everything except the Cowl windscreen.... Another BIG Comfort improvement I highly recommend is the COMFORT SEAT....
    GREAT VIEW BTW.... I was like "WHEEEERE THE " F" his He goin' here😅!!"

    awesome upgrade, i will try them later but my question is for the rack in the back part... like something you have to place bags! you know, one of the issues with the bobber is there is no place for bags or something to travel with. can you make a video of it? pls!!!!

    • @RickyBobber
      @RickyBobber  11 месяцев назад +1

      I recorded a how to but they sent me the wrong bolts and couldn't finish. I grabbed some bolts from home depot and finished it off camera. Pretty simple to install but I'm talking with them right now about the design. Seems I found the maximum weight limit. I don't recommend too much weight on it. Mayne some groceries but not a big bag for travel.

    Just finished CSMP class last month, and just picked up my new '23 Scout Bobber 20. Haven't ridden much yet, but it's pretty unforgiving of potholes. I'm in La Mesa, and like the rest of San Diego, the roads are crumbling. I think I'll be looking for an upgrade on the shocks sooner rather than later.

    Count how many times the HD riders don't give you the 2 finger salute while riding to Sturgis on your mechanically superior Indian. You should go over that interchange bump MotoJitsu likes to go over on his Indian test rides. That'll really test the rear suspension. :)

      @@RickyBobber I think it's the northbound 163 to eastbound 52 ramp. If it isn't that one, it could be northbound 805 to eastbound 52. It could also be northbound 5 to eastbound 52. It's one of those three ramps! :P
      BTW, did a demo thing the other day. The Chieftain Dark Horse might be my next bike if I can save enough money for one. I'm simply way too tall for any given Scout. Pursuit wasn't my thing. It's too heavy, and the one I rode had an inconsistent throttle. The friction zone felt like it was all over the place. I didn't get a chance to hop on the Sport Chief since it was very popular among the other riders. FTR1200 is also too small and the front tire feels a bit off while leaning in curves.
