bags will eventually be coming off, looking at having a set of extended bags made that will fit over V&H monster ovals, the progressive 940s will drop the back end an inch.

raises the front 2.5", spec wheel is 16". lowered the front when chromed the lowers. will lower the rear 1" later. with the lowering shocks it takes bumps better than the stock setup even with less travel, can only imagine its the quality of the suspension over stock.
