Does anyone know if we can switch out the fork tubes on FLHs to the tubes the Soft Tail uses. According to the JP catalog, the ST tubes are 2" longer than the FLH's. I know I've read there are "fork extenders", but I got a REAL bad taste from extenders back in the '60's. Granted, back then they were using anything from 4" to 12" "slugs" as we called them then & there was a real problem with breakage. I realize 1 3/4" is a LONG way from 12" & MAY be safe, but I'd rather change the tube to the right length. If this works, it'd eliminate buying sliders too like with the swap to triglide forks. I don't think a 1/4" extra length would cause any problems -- should be better than 1 3/4" too short. <br />
