Harley-Davidson Softail Lowering Kit – Slamtail

Slamtail – an Australian company run by Ken Rutherford – has released a new lowering kit for Harley-Davidson Softail models that offers the “slammed down” look.

The Slamtail was designed to reuse the OEM spring and shock units, maintaining the stock ride quality. The Slamtail uses hydraulically powered rams to raise and lower the bike’s rear suspension.

A simple remote key fob lowers the bike from its stock ride height to a slammed position in mere seconds, and actually standing by the bike and watching it go through the travel looks impressive, to say the least.

The whole Slamtail system is neatly packaged under the bike and is protected from the elements and road grime by a zinc-plated powdercoated steel plate.

Every part of this lowering kit is made from high-quality aerospace-spec steel and aluminum alloys. Additionally, the rear wheel and gas tank do not need to be removed for installation, and it is virtually invisible when installed. The Slamtail will fit all Twin Cam-powered Softails.
