I just spent the last few hours looking at old posts on lowering bikes. I have a 03 RK Classic and want to lower it. I'm 5'8, 190, and do most of my riding solo. I've decided I don't want a lowering kit.

I'm leaning towards progressive 440's 11 1/2 for the rear. Would this be a good option for me? Does progressive have springs to lower the front and even it out? I'm not an aggressive rider but I don't want to bottom out or scrape either.

I'm just looking for the best solution to have a low bike that is also functionable and smooth riding.

Thanks

 

Thats what i'm running back and front bro,no problems at all.I installed the rear shocks myself,took about 30 min.I let the shop install the front lowering springs.

11.5" progressives on rear and HD fork lowering kit (lowered front 1")-perfect combo for me and I am shorter than you.
