Default front spring recommendation

I know Progressive...I like the looks of their new monotube cartridge. Don't feel like waiting (even a couple weeks). What else is out there?

I went with the H-D 1" springs in my 07' SG. Bike looks good and rides great!

Thumbs up

Love my set of Works Dual-Rate Fork Spring Kit

http://www.worksperformance.com/html/street.html

Kits for street bikes, feature a soft initial rate that "crosses over" to a stiffer final rate. This allows a comfortable "cruising" rate in the first part of the suspension movement, but stiffens for big bumps and to resist front-end dive under braking. Choose one of the three "cross-over" sets to customize the performance for your riding style and rider weight. Available for many American, Japanese, and European bikes.
