    Rode 50 miles this Mornin on the progressive system.
    The bike is dropped 1" in the back like a street glide . Easier to touch the ground & handle the bike is better .
    But it don't jar you when you hit a bump like the street glide .
    Bike feels like its git a Race suspension.
    Rides strong but good .
    The OL likes it too.

    I was thinking if I come out ahead on my winter budget on the sportster I might spring for Progressive suspension components. So for what you paid and what you got you are happy?

    Being shocked by the results sounds like a good endorsement, unless your talking about the guy that you paid to rewire your house. Guess I'll need to keep trimmin the budget for more funtime parts.

    Does anybody on here know of somebody that has done a Fuelmoto build.
    What is Jamies heads CC at when you get a kit with the Woods 555 cams.
    And what is the deck height on the CP pistons when he sends a kit.

    Thanks.
