Motorcycle Repair: 1974 shovehead conversion, shovelhead, garage floor


Question
I have a great running 1974 shovelhead...of course it drips on the garage floor.  My question is, can the front of of the bike be converted to a road king front end?  If so, is it an expensive and extensive procedure?

Answer
Yes, you can convert it to the bigger front end, but I would go with a FLH shovel front end. Easier to install. the expensise would be the cost of the front end. It would take about 5 or 6 hours to do as well as the painting of the fender. With the front end and the fender you would have about 1500.00 just in parts
Good luck and happy riding
