Bitubo has a new Softtail shock out. They are pretty pricey at $975. I can give a nice discount if you want to try one out   :coolblue:

Why didn't you have some when I brought the Frontier to Atlanta?
I guess Martin was right, shocks wouldn't have helped.

I've used the Progressive 440's on 3 different FL series bikes with great results.  Pricey, but the best I've found.

Did you ever mount them on both sides of the bike or stick with mounting one one the left and welding the other one to it.  I never bought that whole "so I could lean in to the winds off the Gulf" excuse either.... :drink:
