FWIW, I had the Racetech setup on my FXLR and while it worked great adjustments on the emulator required removing the forks again. It's not a job you want to do much to get the balance right. My Progressives are Tri-Glide specific and carry a lifetime warranty.
I put the Progressive Montubes on my TG and loved them

It's good to see some new lines coming out. Everything started looking alike.
I think you're going to have a ball with that !
I can't believe that quad Hannigan has ! It looks like a cross of a Can-Am & a Hannigan... Can-Amannigan? But I guess it was bound to happen !
I'm going to do an oil change on the front & rear shocks & see if that helps. I've heard it does a lot with heaver oil.

Hannigan seems to think outside the box which I like. This spring I took a new 2012 GL1800 with a Hannigan conversion for a ride, I was impressed with the ride and handling. I didn't cut it any slack, I sought out the bumps and a corner I know thats pretty good. All I have to do is get some favorable pricing and I'll be smiling. I figure I'll do it sometime early fall.

A lot of times heavier oil will make the ride harsher, it doesn't hurt to give it a go if you don't mind changing it back.
