I sat on a 12scg today at the dealership. It seems allot shorter than my 12s. is it just the seat? Shocks? my bike has a streetfighter seat and it seems much taller. Streetfighter vs. scg seat comfort, anyone have any experience?

Is it in the springs? Are they interchangeable?

I think the rear spring is swappable, but the fork tubes are physically shorter. Contact DaveS at appleton h-d. He's converted several...in both directions. You may even find someone here that wants to swap parts.

Thanks Diablobrian. I will call him and find out the specifics. Sounds like a good winter project.

I've got an Ironmachine Rear Shock Spring, NIB that cost 114.95, I'll sell you for $75. I got it as payment for sponsorship, and I'll sell it to you if you need it.

Custodians, deal as you need.

no, it's stronger, it is the stock size for the stock 12's, but stiffer rated 400X570 LBS.

But remember, it's just the spring.
