What are the pros and cons to lowering my fat bob with a progressive front lowering kit as opposed to just lowering the front forks in the triple tree?

 

I wish I could better help with a more specific response but I only loweredmy Fatbob in the rear. As for me it has been all positive. I wanted a certain look and I was able to attain that I dodn't feel as if I have given anything up. I am an aggresive rider in the twisties and I really can't tell the difference. Maybe I'm scraping a hair earlier but I can't tell. My handling is great and its a blast to ride.

I would guess for you-going with the Progressive front end-they have a great product so you might improve your handling a bit as opposed to leaving your stock HD fronts. If you do it please let us know what you think.

 

I think it would look silly having the fork tubes sticking up above the triple trees.

 

I did both until I got my drop in kit and both work but with the drop in kit and putting in heavier SE fork oil it feels a lot better now and not as mushy in the front end.

 

Thanks for the replies! You guys got any before and after pics of your lowered FB.

 

Is in my sig lowered.
