GL1500 Progressive Fork Springs
Progressive Front Fork Springs soak up small bumps yet are firm enough to absorb the larger ones. Spring rates have been chosen to reduce front end dive under braking. Improves handling while maintaining OEM geometry.

Additional Product Info
Famous progressive fork springs provide better damping and a better ride due to the stock factory springs being way too soft which causes a diving affect when braking hard.
This is the best thing you could do for a better handling on any GL1500 Gold Wing.

I have been riding and racing bikes along time and this is one of the best improvement in handling you can make. I have installed these on bikes since the early 80's. Made huge difference in my wing's handling.

Spent the first of the month installing these progressive and rear progressive as well. While I was at it, replaced the rear rotar, front and back brake pads. My '88' 1500 is a totally different bike. Handling is awesome. Not too stiff and handles the corners well. I could tell the front stock shocks were in need of attention, but wow, didn't realize just how bad until now.
I'm sure mamma will give our bike the thumbs up!!

It is definitely much much better than the stock. Only negative is that, it does not give a very smooth working. It gives a hard feeling when riding.

It is a superb addition to my wing. Handling became more confident due to the firmness. Btw, my machanic pumped in air to the shocks after the installation of the springs but I released it as it became more bumpier. Need advise from other fellow riders. thank you.

This is a wonderful thing that can happen to a Wing rider. The confidence in riding is superb. Btw, does one need to pump in air to the shocks after the installation of the springs. My machanic did that but it became bumpier so
