Looking for opinions from the suspension gurus on here...I have a 2012 Street Glide.

I have HD Premium Ride rear shocks on the bike. Should I keep the stock front fork internals and use heavy duty SE fork oil or switch the front end out for the Progressive Monotube Cartridge Kit? The cost difference would be minimal.

I am looking for better tracking of front end and less dive when applying brakes. Also, for what it's worth, local roads are not the greatest (potholes and such).

(Other vendors for the front end are not an option at this time due to budget)

Thanks in advance.

 

Your current fork has mediocre damping and IMHO changing oil will make a small difference, but not provide a significant improvement. If that is what you want then use the Monotubes, at least they should have superior damping than you current have. If you use Search for 'monotubes' you should get plenty of hits to browse through!

 

I changed the front to Monotubes and never looked back. The best investment I have made to our bike.
