It has been awhile since I have seen ANY ONE thing that IMPROVED the look of a motorcycle more than this swing arm !!! I really enjoyed watching the install ... appreciate your sharing !!!
I don't think that nightster he's building is for the build off. Pretty sure they'll be releasing videos in tandem when it goes down. I think they said in fall, but I could be wrong.
I think this is an excellent addition to the channel, you can have a Chris teaches Justin, so that people who have never worked on a bike before can benefit, its almost like doing a 1 on 1
Stock looked far better to me . That stock V shape was far cleaner and sleek. Also you loose some storage like swing arm bags. It might be good for people who wants get any performance increase by reducing wait.
I just wanna say I love you guys! I just started watching your channel recently and man it’s by far my favorite channel!! I just got a 2007 FLHXand I would love to have it built up and of course you guys! I’m hailing all the way from New Hampshire but eff yeah I’d bring my bike to you guys! My bike has just under 45K miles on her but I have no intention of gets rid of her anytime soon!!
I got hit by tundra on my low rider. S. Dented my swing arm now I ordered a bad a** Track dynamics aluminum one. Frames a little tiny bit bent in one spot near belt. But I think with the new swing arm we can get it straight again😅
I see this question being asked, nothing dramatically changes with the handling with the swing arm. It’s at stock length so there is no major geometry changes 🤙
Have y’all ever thought about picking a day and letting fans share good news? Like “Good News Mondays” for example I would say I just became a published author on Amazon. If it does well I’ll be coming to see y’all with a motorcycle
For me, I don’t feel any major difference in how the bike feels or handles. It’s at a stock length (vs like an extended swingarm) so geometry feels same.
Cool vid love that swing arm replacement.....irrelevant question live in the uk and have a 2022 street bob 114 and bought some cheap forwards to see if i like them (5"11 and have two blood clots in my leg so need comfort which the forwards do) and i do, so want to take the plunge and get some better quality forwards, but find with the ones i have now my heels of my boots scrape the floor are there any quality forwards that dont cost the earth and adustable to stop me scraping? all i can find on the official harley sites are the same design i have now but very expensive. What brands are there you would recommend?
Yo yo mah man…seems as tho your statement was a bit judgemental. Maybe he want’s to chain drive it and isn’t made of money, I mean he spent a fair amount of money on all his parts, shit aint free around here…jus sayin
@@sickwideglidei know parts are expensive 2800$ bucks for a swing arm aint cheap but i still feel like my statement was true most people dont have sponsors or mechanics just on hand so doing thing more completely makes more senes
Why would anyone spend $45 thousand dollars for a bike .Just to put another $5 thousand or so in for a better ride.this should all already be set up for a comfortable ride from the dealership. Gold wing is ready from day one. For a nice long ride.i did this in 85 .road from northern CA to south west Missouri. 700 miles a day.butt didn't hurt or legs and arms.thats what you need.that name no mean shit if you can't enjoy a long ride from day one.

@@paulbronnenberg2075 Thanks!! ✊
i liked the look of the bike with the new swing arm
Looks great without the top bar!
Yo! Where is the build-off vlogs ? Ryan is goin ham out there and I’m ready to see what yall got up ur sleeve for that thang!!✌️

@@JWLLMZwhat? Ryan has several rg videos out already.
They're coming. Good things take time. 😁
@@TableTopBiker the nightster?
We've been bamboozled on the build off. Lol

Looks awesome! Great job guys 😎
You guys are great at making a somewhat simple addon look so fun. It looks great btw!
The anxiety shirt Chris is wearing… 🔥 😂😢😬😳🙌🤞
I couldn’t resist buying it when I saw it!!
Wow, what a difference. I had to remind myself that I was looking at a Softail. Looks great.
Very exciting video.
We say Bobs your uncle in Australia,Chris you are now an honorary Aussie yea Mate.
Looks great, Justin.
✊
Nice looking new swing arm !!
Swingarm looks ok, but if i change it out i prefer the Kruesi Originals Dyna swingarm conversion.
That is a beautiful swing arm, and I like your shock like that
Ayee 👍
Very cool , but you guys forgot to remove the axle from the new swingarm when doing the weight comparison.
Super clean!
Chris’s shirt is 🔥
Thanks Bertini
Looks good, but I would never put one on my Heritage. Definitely a quality piece.
Looking one for my lowrider st now 💪🏼💪🏼
👀
Great looking!!
Stock looked far better to me . That stock V shape was far cleaner and sleek. Also you loose some storage like swing arm bags. It might be good for people who wants get any performance increase by reducing wait.
hello blockhead i work for west coast Harley-Davidson in Scotland all so I'm a Detailer love to try your stuff out bro
SICK!
Progress always hit the spot,god stuff Dudes
If I lived in Orlando, I'd bring you guys coffee and donuts all the time.
Looks sick,how much? and how about a ride review to see if you notice any difference in the ride and handling
Well now you need a Brembo front to match! 😁
👀

Thanks Greg, we appreciate the kind words and support! Def hit us up when you're ready to bring by the bike and we'll get you on the schedule! 🤘🏼
Honestly looks dope to be honest! Chris is just jealous 🤣
Dynamic duo!!! Sick video!!!
✊
That bike is sick! Only thing I’m not a fan of is the dual one-sided exhaust, if it were me I’d go 2 into 1 but to each’s own!
make sure you use the service recall bolt lol
I like it opens it up more so see more of tire a rim
Agree
Cool new part really nice bike
Excellent video and great product, you guys do great work. Best Regards from Adelaide, Australia.
🙌
Sorry, no outboard reservoir 😕... Clean up your act... The swing arm is badass🏁
It's a different spot for it so it's COOL!!!
@@KevinRiggin-f3h 👏👏👏
Nice Justin!
@@tomvail6207 Thanks Tom!
Now you’ll have to do a chain drive conversion. Bike will look better
@@ren5548 👀
Great video though I'm more impressed that Justin is wearing a flannel in Florida during summer
It's so hot 🥵
@@IronBuiltEquinox 😂😎😆
That looks sharp.
Let us know how the ride changes. (if at all)
Swingarm looks awesome. I like the reservoir, but not in that spot.
External mount shock res. Gotta get it powder coated or something to make it pretty though
Don't even why I'm watching this when I'm still deciding on my seat and mufflers on my 21 RG 😅
Don't listen to the haters, external shock reservoirs are badass!!
Facts 😎
Go Justin go. Nice look and yes cool.
Thank you! 🙏
Sweet ⚡️
That's a sick-looking swingarm on that bike. Kinda makes me wonder if I could find something like that for my Dyna.
They do make them for Dyna! 👍🏼
@@BlockheadMoto awesome!
I have a softail slim. I would love to do a build much like this bike.
I got hit by tundra on my low rider. S. Dented my swing arm now I ordered a bad a** Track dynamics aluminum one. Frames a little tiny bit bent in one spot near belt. But I think with the new swing arm we can get it straight again😅
I wouldn't personally mount that reservoir that way... but you do you.
Drops 7 lbs and looks great. Does it do anything for traction or performance ?
In my opinion, no major difference, doesn’t change the geometry or handling.
Yo Ryan has been built that street glide and has already said when he returns from sturgis it’s goin to Trask for a turbo build on the 135!
Looks great! Will you be doing a follow up vid &/or review of how it handles?
I see this question being asked, nothing dramatically changes with the handling with the swing arm. It’s at stock length so there is no major geometry changes 🤙
It handles the exact same😂
Have y’all ever thought about picking a day and letting fans share good news? Like “Good News Mondays” for example I would say I just became a published author on Amazon. If it does well I’ll be coming to see y’all with a motorcycle
It’s sik
Question: did you have the option to go with a wider tire
Is there a benefit aside from weight savings and aesthetics?
For me, I don’t feel any major difference in how the bike feels or handles. It’s at a stock length (vs like an extended swingarm) so geometry feels same.
Damn i need that swingarm for my lowrider s.
👀
Is Chris drinking a Big Blue soda, he is cool ❄️
I'm going to throw the breakout shock an external adjuster on my ST
👏👏
Shoulda put the new absorbers on the sw😢Ingram isolators with the green inserts so it’s less vibe.
If you book service at Blochead Garage. Rest well knowing that your ride is in the hands of a 27-year H-D Master Mechanic.
Of all the languages in the world, you chose to speak facts 👏👏👏
What's the difference swingarm old verse new. Other than lighter.
Looks good, see your still rocking the IL plates, you’re missed out here
Haha yea! It’ll be changing to FL plates soon. I do miss the Midwest from time to time
Yo get that stuff down here at Berts Black widow
The reservoir is in a legit spot, I think it sticks out just a little too far
How did this new suspension improve the quality of your ride ?
Raised it about a half inch, def better but I still want to upgrade to an aftermarket shock
Need a chain drive now
👀
Do they makes these swing arms for RK's?
That thing needs some polished krusei original wheels
What's with the rainbow shorts 🤔
Thery’re not rainbow but hey, whatever you insecure or somethin?

Mini adjustable floor boards look into thrashing supply co.
@@derekreilly1039 will do thank you
just mount another reservoir on the other side and put some tassels on it lol
That was the first time anywhere that I made the first comment... todays going to be a good day!!
I’ll give your comment a thumbs-up on the condition you find something more substantial to be happy about haha. Have a great day!
Hell. Yeah. Brother 🤘🏼
Wishing swing arms weren’t $3k 😂😂🥃
Sheeeesh. That brembo tho 🔥🔥🔥
Looks great . With the shock you should have a noticeable difference.
That 7lbs difference, that’s unspung weight?
Does it ride more stable?
@@isorides I don’t feel any major difference in how the bike handles, it’s at stock length so geometry doesn’t change.
had all that apart at some point put new rotors now new swing arm and caliper but still have that ugly ass stock rear pulley

Not a fan of the outboard reservoirs
🤘🏼
🤘😈🤘
Dope swing arm! And sorry man but not cool. Mount the reservoir under the seat
How much does that cool cost? It looks great and you lost 8 pounds.
Tuck that adjuster underneath the seat man.
That rear brake is way to big for a motorbike
Resavoir looks dumb. Swingarm looks dumb before getting rid of the spoke wheels.
Not sick
Listen to Chris #Yeti
Sorry but that mount location is whack haha
first
Not COOL
Yes huh.
Thats a sweet swing arm. Do u make one fer a dyna fat bob??
