I'm going to lower my bike an inch front and back and was wondering about the front offerings from Progressive.
Originally I was just going to buy the drop in kit from them but I noticed they make springs that I assume are not drop in. I guess aside from the obvious "one is drop in and one isn't" what is the difference between the kits?
I'll already have my forks apart in order to get the lowers powdered so would there be any benefit if I skipped the drop in kit and got the standard front springs?

There's a video fom Progressive showing how easy it is with the "drop-in" spring.I just put in the standard height springs from Progressive on my 02 FXD and found the ride greatly improved. They work real well with the Progressive shocks on the rear. I'm sure the Lowered springs will be just as easy.
