Default Lowering

Just curious if anyone has tried or knows if this can be done.

Lower the front end using your existing stock springs.

I have a 2004 FLSTC.

+1 on the Ness dampeners:
I used them with the stock springs on my Dyna some years ago and they worked fine.

I used them also but if you plan on putting raked trees on your bike it will mess up your trail with a lowered front end.
