Hello all and greetings from Florida, USA.
I was just up to Daytona Bike Week, last week. Had the best warm weather week for it. I just spent over an hour re-sizing the pixels for my Avatar. I've been years trying to get that done! Explaining - that I used to be on the old IA Board over a decade or so, ago. Back then, I designed and built a few of these Springers for the VS 750 and VS 800. I'm not very computer literate for posting photos and I have an aversion to the legal terms of posting via 3rd party, as I have proprietary things going on.
Long story - short; I was away for many years and now I'm back but with limited time for posting. Here, I'm getting my posting to a whooping count of two and thought you all might enjoy seeing an Intruder with a Springer. I have a VS 1400 currently under construction and maybe it will soon to be on the road. More on that later. I will say that the C50 Springers won't work on the 1400's, or I may need heavier springs. I'm back to stock for now.
In closing, I'll add that the C50 Springers were 6" over. Handled like stock, and used all OEM components like; Handlebars, cables, wiring, horn, headlight, fender, brakes, etc. Extra was a 6" longer speedo cable, + 6" of brake line, turn signals and a Timken lower neck bearing. All Nuts and bolts were SS, except for the rockers. All for now.
