Very nice
This were a great improvement over the stock suspension. I also changed to the rear Progressive Shock Spring. I have since installed the Progressive Monotube Cartridges and that is a considerable improvement over these. |

smooooooooooooooth
Install was a cakewalk. Ride?...........Smooth. Beats (not literally), the hell out of the stock springs. A very much needed upgrade. I highly recommend these springs. Now going to save up for doing the rear. |

Smoother Ride
I installed these Fork Springs and was concerned about if different problems would arise being that I did it myself. NO PROBLEM, I did take the time to do some extra things such as all ball bearing on the spindle and check brake pads. No war stories, these springs went in easily and did not have to make any other adjustment to the hydraulics. The smoothness of the ride over ruff sections of the road was better than with the stock springs. Worth the money and time to do the work. |

installed these and bike rides great, have not had any issues with the front end being too stiff like stated below. I put the rear spring on also but had these on the 02 and put 100,000 miles on them and loved them, I only have 70,000 on the 08 right now so still braking in....(: I think this is a good idea to put on wings and would include the rear spring also. |

Well I am about 330 and had both the front and rear springs changed. After talking to Progressives support team they advised me to add about 3/8 of an inch to my spacers. That was 380 miles ago and I would do it all over again. Improved my ride and because I am a little heavier rider the plush factor has increase 10 fold. I also had the stem bearings changed but decided not to use a brace. Thumbs up on the springs. |

2006 GL1800 I had the springs installed at Wingstuff in Aug of 09 and only replaced the stock springs because the Kuryakyn fork brace I also had installed at wing stuff was hitting my factory brakeline mounting bracket. After much research and debate kuryakyn has redesigned their fork brace to leave clearance on top of the fender for the brakeline bracket (still insufficient clearance). They also agreed to replace my forkbrace with the new model which i exchanged for a Superbrace which mounts close enough to the front fender to clear Hondas factory brakeline bracket. After all of this was installed by recommendation of Rick WingStuffs owner I was riding across smooth open highway approaching 100 mph when my front wheel began to bounce violently. I returned to Wingstuff later brought the issue to the attention of Rick the owner and was referred to Don the service manager. Who determined the forksprings are to stiff to allow the recoil necessary. This is the second time I have bought supposedly bolt on equipment and have had severe adverse mechanical results. NO PRODUCT SHOULD HAVE A SKULL AND CROSSBONES OR SMALL PRINT DISCLAIMER AND SAFETY ISSUES REGARDING PRODUCTS SHOULD BE HANDELED BY THE RETAILER THEY SHOULD COMMUNICATE WITH MANUFACTURE |

had o them installed on my 2005 gla along with new tires,bearings, and front fork brace, also had dyna beads and nitrogen installed in my tires what a big help rides smoother and no more shimmy either on acceleration or down speeding, highly recommend doing it all at the same time, so more chrome will have to wait a bit |
