Street glide lowered front ?
I just got my new used street glide, 2008
apparently it has been lowered from the factory in the front only using only HD parts. .. so what kind of lowering kit would be in the front if the previous owner only used HARLEY PARTS ?
is it the "shorter spring " shock that lowers the front 1"
I'm 6'1, the bike feels just fine for me, should I take it out and bringthe front back to stock ?
the rear is stock .. .
what are the pros and cons of leaving it in, or taking it out ? does it handle better with the fron lowered since the rear on street glides are lower in the rear from the factory ?
Thanks !

If It's Factory would be 1" and if you are happy with it should be no problems .. My Son has a Street Glide OEM Rear Shocks with 1" Lower in Front with thousands of happy miles on it .. I would not lower the rear anymore though, heard of problems when do that ..
