Overall great product, but make sure you have a long 12mm Allen wrench. Otherwise you will not be able to remove the bottom bolt out of shock. You also need a 19mm Allen wrench socket as well.

Awesome performance
These are absolutely worth every dime and a ten fold increase in ride pleasure over stock garbage Harley Davidson suspension.
Great upgrade
time consuming install, but a great improvement over stock. Stopped the brake dive and no more mushy corners, yet a smooth cushy ride, this was everything I hoped for, recommend progressive suspension always.
Enjoying the upgrade
Great shocks No more diving and the front shocks actually move. Could be alittle stiffer but still a huge upgrade from stock. Hwy bumps r gone and it tracks better. Wish I had done the front end sooner. <br />Works nice with the 490s rears too.
Great ride and control
If you want the ride and handling of a highend sports bike on your touring motorcycle this product is by far the best and easiest upgrade you could install on your bike in less than 2 hours!
Harley suspension improvement
This Harley front fork suspension upgrade is a big improvement over the OEM suspension. You can actually feel the front end soaking up bumps!
