New Bike!
I bought my '06 1800 with 40K mi on it and was never very happy with the handling . Only thing I had to compare with was CX500 25 years ago, so I thought "just big bike". Put these on a couple weeks ago and have put 500mi on now, and WOW!! Now in fairness, it appears that the previous owner had never changed fork oil or seals, so it would have been interesting to see how much difference just that made, BUT, putting the progressives + All Balls in has made this a completely new bike! An extra 10MPH in curves that feels more confident than the old 10MPH slower, + better general bump handling, slow handling, and confidence in the bike. I had a dealer put them in, so no comment on ease of install, but VERY happy with the result! |

Bigfoot Must Have
I'm 6'4' with wide 14 feet. First 1800mi trip on the wing it was obvious that the pegs had to go. Put these on with the shifter, did 2700mi in 4 days last year, + another 4K here and there and they are super. Yes, they scrape from time to time, mostly on slow sharp maneuvers, but not enough to be a problem. |
