Would like to have advice to replace bulb, as low beam is out. does entire faring assy need to be removed? Square lens seems to be in there like biscuit hair? Also want to repair weaping front shock? Street set up warrants stock repacement of seals but heavy duty might be better. Thanks in advance for recommendations.

It's been awhile, but I seem to remember, that if you have really small hands, you can just squeeze in there and pull the headlight socket out. If not, then yes, you'll need to R&R the fairing.

Wrt. the shock; make sure you take it to a reputable suspension shop for the rebuild. My personal preference is Traxxion Dynamics:

It may be easier to pull the fairing. Not a big deal, but it will take some time. For a replacement bulb, H-D has a Xenon bulb that is $20.00 or so. I put it in my S3T, and it made a world of difference.

Did I mention we offer a 10% BadWeb discount? : )
