Also agree about Racetech for the front,with gold emulators,and modified spacers.If you want Harley fprks to actually work,forget progressive springs.
I have a set of Ikon shocks in the garage.Blew one out and they didn't want to believe me.Wanted me to send to them at my cost.So much for honouring warranties.When they were working,they were really good.BUT !!!!!

Some think that it is about the motorcycle,it is about the man on the motorcycle.

As an aside, I assume you worked out that the cracking of the little top cover has nothing to do with rough roads or riding |

What u riding? Whats your budget?
If you are serious about the front end and you have a massive budget there is a guy in the US who does an inverted forks set thats awesome.
Next step down from that is a cartridge set for the front. Progressive make a cheap one, X-Factor make an A grade one.
Next down from that is the racetech emulators, but depending on what bike you are riding you may already have stock HD emulators, and the Racetechs arent that much better.
For the back Penske or Ohlins if you are serious. Progressive if you like pretty things, Ikon if you want value for money. |

Dont forget Fornales and YSS also look pretty good
I will be getting either of these two. I have had IKON in the past and well, lets just say I would never buy them again...\
As you said, it all comes down to how much you want to spend.
