Found them slightly cheaper on eBay ($402) from Eastern PC. Reputable eBay seller.

That'd be my choice based on my past experience with their products.

I originally decided to do Progressives but changed my mind after researching Legends website and watching a couple of their videos. For example, the ride height is set with a threaded adjuster vs Progressive's plastic clips. The Legends are a solid aluminum piece and just looked better built in my opinion. They also have a lifetime warranty and not sure if Progressive do or not but for $350 I decided to do it as I plan on keeping the bike barring any catastrophe. I don't think you will find a lot of reviews as they are a fairly new product for the front. They also have rear air and coil suspension that has good reviews as well.

Thank you gentlemen. I'm sure you've helped more than just me out with this.

Put Wild 1 Chubby 10" bagger bars on the Ultra. All went smoothly but it sure is a PITA getting down to the bars. Drank a beer, took some stuff off. Drank another beer........you get the picture. Went for a short ride after I buttoned it all back up and I can say they sure made a difference in the way the bike handles and rides. Made it feel more nimble to me.

Rode her on Christmas Eve, same day I got her back from the shop.
Took a little while to re-accustom myself to her after all this time(4 Months+/-).
But she runs like a champ after broadsiding Bambi.

Uncovered it, put some eBay flag mounts on and made sure it started. Still 50* here but drizzling now so no ride for me today.

Had the same experience. I've got the 10" Yaffe and they made a whole world of difference.

My 4" stretched bags came in, i gotta put the hardware and all on when they get back from the paint shop.. But bags and Lids for the $ I paid this is a great deal. Bags seem to be awesome shape, very little body work needed. I can't find any flaw with it. I also like the way they look with the factory rear fender
