GW-74 Springer Fork Kit for XL ('14-'16) Narrow Glide Fork / for 19, 21 inch 2 inch Oversize

[For '04 and later / rubber-mount Sportster]
GLEAMING WORKS original 74 Springer Fork KIT

Solves the problems that occur when fitting a conventional 74 springer fork to '04 and later Sportsters.

Fitting a regular 74 springer to an '04 or later Sportster used to mean major problems: interference with the handlebar lock and frame, high costs from extensive modification, and almost no steering angle.
By rethinking the stem shaft position, this product is a true bolt-on with no modification at all, keeps the handlebar lock working, offers a practical steering angle, and provides proper braking performance with a dedicated brake kit, all at a realistic cost.

A dedicated cast design, including the top tee, creates a classic style right from the handlebar area

The top tee (top bridge) also has a dedicated cast design, and the dedicated risers support everything from a compact handlebar setup to a wide range of classic styles.

Notes on braking

Springer forks are much weaker than the telescopic forks that almost all stock bikes use today.
Applying strong braking force puts a heavy load on the rear arm, so the dedicated kit uses a weaker caliper than stock.
In addition, unlike a regular Sportster, please ride using about 30% front and 70% rear braking.

*This product is a front fork based on a design from about 80 years ago.
Roads and traffic conditions are very different from back then, and it also feels very different to operate, so please ride safely until you are fully used to it (and of course after that too).
