OK so I finished the suspension upgrade on my 2003 Road Glide and did some test riding
Installed Ricor shocks - I have them set a little stiff so will dial them back a bit unless I load the bike but over all a good ride, easy to install, lots of adjustable
Also installed the Intiminator upgrade in the front. Along with setting up both sides with full damping. The bike originally came from the factory with damping on one side.
I recommend this upgrade. As soon as i drove down the road I could tell the suspension was better. pot holes were smoothed out, overall handling was improved.
There are lots of things out there that say you will see improvement but very few that actually do. These work, just ordered another set for my chopper
