Lowering Blackline forks?
I've tried searching the forum, scoured the net, and contacted Progressive with no luck. Progressive says they're working on a kit but it'll be 6-8 months, which really means 12-16 months.
Does anyone know if there is a drop in lowering kit already out there that would work for the forks on the Blackline?

i don't know who you talked to at Progressive, but any set for an FXST will work. same forks. same size. i can't find the email, but i had emailed them last year about a part # for thier monotubes, lowered, for my Blackline, and they shot me back the part #. go to your local bike shop, or hell, even dealer, and they should know, but they already have them, standerd, lowered, or mono tubes for our bikes.

Awesome...thank you.
I talked to Jeffrey Hill. Asked about lowering the forks, he told me I should get 422 shocks. Told him I was talking about the forks, not the back shocks, and he told me nothing else would work and that it would be 8 months before they had anything for the Blackline...I knew he was full of it.
Did you end up buying the lowered monotubes? If you did, how does it handle?
