Thanks everyone for the input. I have decided to now just go ahead and lower the rear with the 422 from Progressive and then do the drop ins up in the front from them aswell. I figured why test it out. Once its done I will post up a few pics.

I just got lowering bolts. I lowered the rear 2in as well as the front IMHO I think if you lower everything equally you will kinda keep the stock dimensions and not mess up your handling.
Mine handles great but you need to watch hittin a corner to hard because I scrape my pegs!!!

I just gone done with lowering the front with the Progressive Drop-In kit and it was a piece of cake. I really like the look now. I also put my new La Pera Bare Bones solo seat on. I will get some pics up but it is dark now. I tell you what definitely an improvement on the handling and feel of the front end now. If you have your rear lowered do the front you will not be disappointed. The install is really simple.

I just put a Shotgun Shock on my bike and so far I love it! I had Arlen Ness lowering bolts in the rear and the front is lowered also. I can't remember which kit is in the front? If anyone needs the Ness lowering bolts shoot me a PM and we'll deal.
