What do you recommend?

 

Nothing but good to say about the mono's ~mano~.

 

 

It made a huge difference for me. The 2 spacers made the ride stiff and jarring.

 

 

 

 

I'm 6' and 210 lbs. I had 2 in my 2002 stripped down FLHTC (same as a street glide) and it was miserable. No brake dive at all but WAY harsh on sharp edge bumps and frost heaves etc. Took out 1 and now run just 1. It's better than 2, slight compression with braking but still too harsh for me. Just haven't switched them out to something else. I have Ohlins rear shocks which are very good but the way stiff, abrubt mono shocks tax them slightly. With good rear shocks you find out quickly the condition of your front suspension. A friend who is 6', 300 lbs uses 2 in his and is happy. I ride 2 up 75% of the time. I would go with 1 if I were you. Also, I have talked to a progressive tech regarding mine. He said go with 2, then I told him about the harsh ride and he then said he had heard about that from other people and then recommended 1. Doesn't inspire much confidence in their tech's for me.

 

This, in a nut shell. with 2, my ride was also jarring and very stiff. With 1, still jarring on the bumps I mentioned just not as stiff. I do live in an area that suffers from the effects of harsh winters. Warmer states with better roads may be a different story.

 

What ever route you decide to go just remember adding or removing a clip(s) requires a complete tear down of the legs. Choose wisely......
