DNA springer front end

I was just wondering if anybody has one of these front ends and if they like it or they don't like it! Thanks

I "HEARD" they were really squeaky. Again this is just what I have heard...save up the extra dough and get a quality brand.

Yea I figured that one! I would like to get an oem Harley springer front end. I don't know how much they cost but I'm sure it's alot! Any suggestions on a good quality springer front end?

HD has made quite a few springers, I would think one of them would work on your bike. Maybe Ebay?

i have owned or ridden several springers. HD is probably best. Paughco is the long time king. I had DNA on a bobbed iron head. it was of much lesser quality than HD or Paughco. and I have seen a bunch of the other crap out there sold online. alot of people building bikes, are putting the cheapest fork they can find on the front. if you look and feel the paughco and hd and then look at the others it is nite and day.

DNA springers are garbage. I have heard rider reports of siezed rockers and the legs breaking while on the interstate. There is a BRAND NEW Paughco springer in the classifieds here for 750 bux!
