I installed a 21" front wheel on my 2012 street glide using a progressive 1" lowing kit and dent my fender. Is this a fix.

Bruce, I don't believe there is a "fix". Your stock front wheel is 18" - so, with the 21" you have effectively reduced your travel by (21-18)/2=1.5". Then add the reduction of 1" lowering and your out of travel available before hitting fender. The Progressive install instructions caution to check travel before riding the bike. I dropped my '13 FLHX 1" with the stock front wheel and had no problems and a much better ride.

i dont thank it will help you ,because your fender bolts to your lower tubes. you need to change your fender get one thats made for a 21 inch tire but the progresive do give a good ride

To be honest with you, I don't know. If I had to guess, I would say yes, because it does change the entire internal assembly thereby changing the valving. If it was me, I would call Progressive and talk to the tech guys. The couple time I've called they were VERY helpful in answering all my questions. I'm sure you aren't the first person to run this setup with a 21" front wheel. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

From my experience with my 2013 street glide is that it lowered about 1 1/4. I don't believe it will get much lower than that. U can check progressives Web site for correct application and specs.

I have the Bushwhacker flat fenders, I didn't have any problems with fenders, but I did have to cut out part the inner fender.

My best guess on the small dent on your Harley is that this product will not work. A small dent on my Sierra tailgate will not come out with this. This thing is good on flat areas about the size of your fist. The least bit of curve in the metal and the suction is hard to seat. I have an old Sportster and I could not use this on the fender. Google removing dents .... I saw once where a hair dryer and can of air works. I never tried that but it was all over the internet. GOOD LUCK.

No because I've hung the rack low enough so that the bottom wheel rests on the floor. I guess if I've hung the rack higher, then the front wheel might incur some damage.

these shocks will lower the dresser bike about an inch, however due to being shorter, they also reduce the travel of the rear wheel. This means since the dresser is heaver than the street glide you may bottom out more often. You will certainly notice the stiffer ride. It would be recommended to lower the front at the same time as not to change the bikes handling characteristics since the front would be higher than the rear if you only changed out the rear shock.

There is little bit cut out about to the holes where the stock fenders were mounted. I have a 6 in lift and 33x12.5 and have about 5 inches away from tire. Hope that helps.

They will lower your bike about one inch. I have a street glide which is about an inch lower than an ultra...no change in ride higth for me. I love them. It's like I got a new bike. Call the progressive guys for advice,they're very good.

The kit improved my bikes suspension (HD street glide) 100 percent. Use the right amt. of spacers for your weight (200lbs. for me- so 2 spacers) and the right weight and amt. 5 oz per ea. of fork oil (as instructed) just for lubrication, and you should be fine. Lowered 1-1/4 inch and made an unbelievable improvement in handling as well. no stiffness at all, and still controls a hard front braking nose dive. Hope this helps. I think its just that some people don't do the research for their particular ride, etc.

Not on my Electra glide classic, but it did stand up a little straighter. Kit didn't work on mine tire rubbed on something under the fender

Beverly, I have a 2010 street glide and it fits my bike with no problem. I don't think there's a difference between the bike as far as the fender area, but do ask the bike shop first sorry I couldn't provide you more info

It will either drop the bike 1.5" or 2", depending on the springs you use. It can do either. I went to a 21" front wheel and needed a drop of 1.5". Worked perfect for me.

No it will not, this kit is just like all the others that look like it, I was skeptical and ordered one and NO it will not work. I even contacted Bagger Werks and they said this will not work on a 2014 Street Glide Special because of the coil spring shocks. The bottom of the shock hits and will be pushed up under a load, If you have this on a 2014 HD with Coil over Shocks you better look at it with some one on the bike.

You need a smooth, outside surface...don't think inside the fender will work.

Not to bad at all. Be sure to remove the old pedal covers first, this will help tremendously. Soak the new covers in hot water to loosen up the rubber. You will need a flat head and a pair on needle nose to work the covers on the pedals, they are a tight fit. They look really nice when on.

I don't see why it shouldn't fit the street glide....you have the same horn cover and mount as my tri glide
