Default 39mm Springer front end using stock trees on a Sportster

Has anyone used or know of any one that has the 39mm springer front end using the stock trees on a Sportster? I was looking through one of my magazines and saw the kit advertised. They did a how-to pictorial on putting it on and it doesn't seem hard at all. I was wondering if anybody has had the opportunity to use it. Whats it look like in person and, most importantly, hows the ride quality? Thanks.

Probably post it in the Sportster section to get expert opinions.

A springer front end with stock 39mm triple trees...This ought'a be entertaining.

Here it is:

Nice way to ruin a perfectly good motorcycle.

Maybe I'm a little too old school here, but whenever I see a springer on a bike with rear shocks, I think of wooden spoke wheels on a Corvette...
