RE: Fat Boy Pictures
dugan, I'm not much of an expert on the difference either but from what I can gather from feedback is the ride is a bit smoother...guess it depends on whether you ride solo or 2up, weight, etc....and cost. I'll see over the summer what the ride is like (and interested in feedback from brian25) and if too stiff, then I'll spring for the dollars to go Progressive too

Just got the Fatboy back on the road after wreck in Oct. 2007. My wife and I were taking our Saturday ride and had a cager make a quick stop in front of us. We were doing about 45mph. I hit the brakes hard and started to slide. I had to release the brakes and turn off the road to avoid hitting the car. Just my luck, there was a drainage ditch on that side of the rode, so did the Evil Kenival Canyon jump. Made it accross to the other side of the ditch , then went down hard. It knocked me out and my wife got a broken wrist out of the deal. We both did the Grady run and she got out that night, but I was there for 3 days with a concussion. We both are very lucky to have got off that easy. Just wanted to post a picture of the bike after I did the repairs and got her up and running. Glad to be back on the road, but the wife is not going to be taking to the road with me. Maybe after a few months she will get back on the horse. Be safe out there.
