man I must have got a bad set of springs from WB on mine cause it rides like **** lowered.Not doubting your experience with the Fournales but I can't see it improving the ride to better than stock before lowering.What I really don't like about the lowered springer is the weight the bars picked up under 15 mph or so.I'm not gonna mess with it anymore.Putting the stock stuff back in with a new Harley shock on it. I loved the ride before it was lowered. Appreciate every one's input.where it is now.

No worries. Do what you feel is best. Like I said, with the White Bros lowering springs and the Fournales shock, the bike rode better than stock springs with the stock shock.

Regardless, the bike looks great!

Thanks 66.Guess everybody has a different take.I did get to borrow a Progressive the other day and it was better than the soft HD shock that's on there but nothing special.Didn't hit the bottom as fast on the bumps.Is the Fournales an air adjustable shock?Hard to tell from the ads I looked at.It says air but nothing else.
