Default Xmas Budget...Opinions needed!
So the wife gave me a budget and I'm looking at either a complete DNA springer front end , or a legend air setup. Also, any other ideas along those same lines of awesomeness would be appreciated. If you choose other, please specify what else you would get! Decision decisions! Happy holidays guys!

Skip the Legend Air system, and buy a Shotgun Shock setup. PM Dr. V-Twin for great pricing.

These are my only two options cuz it's through a military credit card friendly distributor. They don't carry any other brands...

I agree with the shotgun shock, but a springer front end is as equally cool

A springer front end would be perfect for that bike IMHO.
