CUSTOM CHROME has added Paughco’s Custom FXR-style frames for Touring model drivelines.
The new frames are designed to accept all ‘93-‘11 Evo or Twin Cam Touring model drivelines with the oil tank located under the transmission, and they have FXR-style mounts for the gas tank, side covers, seat and battery.
A special sheet metal plate covers the area where the oil tank would normally fit. Designed for forward controls, they have a three-point mount on the left side that will accept a forward shifter bracket, and conventional kickstand mounting bracket options include either stock or wide 180/200 tire fitment. The swingarms, pivots shafts and axle kits are sold separately.
Also seen here is a Santee brand rigid frame for use with ’04-onward rubber mounted Sportster engines. The frames will work with a tire up to 150mm with either chain or belt final drive. It has 30 degrees of rake and no additional stretch in the back and down tubes.
Front fork preload adjusters from Burly (for use on ’88-onward and 91-onward Dyna models) are said to be easily installed, with the aluminum adjusters offering 20mm of preload, available in black or machined finish.
Also in the program are Progressive Suspension’s High Performance cartridge fork kits for Dyna front ends. The kits feature an asymmetrical design that places a preload adjuster over a progressive rate spring in one leg and an aluminum bodied, sealed cartridge damper in the other. Once installed on ’06 and later Dyna models, the kits are claimed to reduce brake dive, and improve front end stability, cornering and bottoming control.
Also designed to improve bike stability, the RevTech chassis stabilizer for Touring models utilizes a swingarm pivot anchor on FLH and FLT ’93-’08 to increase riders’ cornering confidence by reducing frame-flex.
