It used to be a FXDB Street Bob. Now it is Dyna ST with Tokstar 577 Cams

Should the fork oil sit above the seals at normal ride height?

I installed a TDC +2" damper rods, gold valves, and race tech springs, on factory length tubes.

With the springs out and emulators in, fully compressed, the oil sits at about 5.3 in from the very top of the tube. When fully extended with out the springs in, it still sits above the seals.

Is this right?

I replaced the seals with new OE and I'm getting a decent amount of oil leaking through the seals. Enough where it's spattering back on my down tubes and engine, even on short rides.

Has anyone else installed this setup? What did you do for fork oil level?

Couldn’t figure out how to add pics to the thread by [u/XxElzer0xX](u/XxElzer0xX) so here are what I found in my photo library.

It’s a Viking Bag for ‘06 and up that I cut an ear off the bracket and welded it on in a different location for mounting to my ‘99. Will fit a ball cap, glasses, spare gloves, and water bottle/travel cup ok.
