What is the best rear suspension you have had on an FXST?
« on: November 29, 2014, 07:11:38 PM »
Hi All, looking to improve the rear suspension on a 2009 FSXTSSE3 both from both a comfort and handling perspective 

Have seen lots of ads for Progressive 422 / 422s with Raps but not too much else. Not necessarily looking to have the electronically adjustable.

What is everyones experience?

Also looking at these

http://www.harleycustom.com/US_Fournales-Pan-Cruise-Shocks-for-Evo--Twin-Cam-Softail_41_622_229

They always get a great write up in the local mags. There is a guy in Australia who supplies them.
