Default Front suspension upgrade 2010 Fat Bob

Hey all , I'm looking to upgrade my front suspension on my 2010 Fat Bob FXDF and would like to do a drop in cartridge type with preload adjustment. Right now I am running the Premium Ride Single Cartridge from Harley and I am not happy with it at all. I have checked Legends and Ohlins and neither seem to have an option for the Fat Bob. Fox offers a cart kit for the Fat Bob but it looks like there is no preload adjustment. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Whats the difference between the Fatbob and Lower fork? I would think if it worked for one then it should work for the other. You can look at GP Suspension too.

I have bitubo in the rear of my 2014 Fat Bob. Didn't know anything about them having cartridges for the front. I ended up putting Adreani Cartridges up there. I am happy. By the time it is all said and done, it was close to 1k. I sent my forks off to have the mods necessary done, so I only had to take them off and put them back on. There aren't as many options for the Fat Bob, or I might have tried the Legends.. I think Howard of Motorcycle Metal can put Ohlins on Fat Bobs.The Adreanis I got were from Fast Bike Industries. They are sweet, just don't know how much I saved compared to Ohlins that people say are the bestest. They absolutely made a huge difference, and they are adjustable.

I have these on my S. They are dynamite. The preload adjustment is set with a combination of included spacers and the dial on the cartridge.
