I'm running the Progressive full kit up front (not drop in) with Ricor Intiminators, and bolts out back. Ive got it 2" lower front and rear. Ride is firmer than stock for sure, but I also cranked up the preload in the rear to prevent bottoming out and minimize the belt rub on the primary. Big bumps and potholes are pretty harsh. I just always chew gum while riding, keeps the teeth from cracking together.

cool look zz. seat is gonna take a little getting used to. I like the short springs with that fender.
All right ditched the 2 under tubes and just used the Genesis dbl springs with the gold valve set up.I just thought that it rode good at 4 under but I've convinced myself the bike handles much better now. Miss the 2" extended Ness plates.Bike is fun to ride but it's getting time for something new.Will be for sale soon.

Very cool pic jojo (Story your angle of the pic is good too but that crazy *** tree in the background is too cool and it's distracting from yer whip lol) Either way - nice Memorial Day related pics - Respect.


Story --- what kick stand is that?


Tracy - liking those changes! - the bobber kit looks good (I do agree with back again on the seat thing - but hey it aint my bike) Either way, looking damn good
