I agree entirely about the foundations for the front end. On my ole 1990 Glide, owned from new, HDF has had quite a radical affect on it's development! I have a 2007 swingarm with Ohlins shocks at the rear, plus a True-Track kit, as my rear end foundations. They just showed up the front for what it is, although I only belatedly decided to take the plunge with CCE, shortly after rebuilding my forks with the springs and Intiminators mentioned earlier. Suffering from back problems at present, so waiting until I can safely tackle the rebuild.

Finally got the chance to road test this combination in my bike yesterday.
I concur with Flyer's assessment, it's an awesome combination. The front end is rock-solid and is finally performing as well as the JRI-equipped rear end.
If you like hitting the corners hard, this is a must-have upgrade.

I've put a little over 200 miles on my newly converted Road Glide (converted my Street Glide into a Road Glide) with the CCE and 1" lowered Monotubes. Granted I did a big front end change by switching fairings alone, but I can say there is a big difference in the performance of the bike's front end. Road imperfection, grated bridge crossings, deep groves in roadways don't seem to upset the front end like it did pre-CCE. Some say their bikes feel like its on rails. I don't know about that, but it's a huge improvement overstock. I kinda want to ride a 2014 to get a comparison. I do know the bike tracks very true now, where as in the past it would track ever so slightly left if I took my hands off the bars for any amount of time. Now I can take my hands off the bars and the bike tracks true. Again, I did two major front end projects at the same time, but I feel the CCE TourTrac was money well spent.
