well took the wife with me, her first long ride, and the ride report goes as this, on the way down, SHE HATED IT, now it was 500 miles one way, left in a lite rain which quit about an hour into the ride, half way she was ready to get off and eating advil like candy, on the way back it was a 100 times better and no advil, the normal spots in the road that would have given us a good shake now were barely noticable. the bigger spots like the cracked up places before bridges and torn up pot holes still bumped but no where near the violent bone jarring jolt that we experiance on the way down. Falling into a corner, it would stay where i put it even over rough road, where before it would "walk around", and i found myself correcting myself when hitting rough road in the corners from habit, when it was not needed. slow cornering control is very much improved, to the point that she even commented that I was riding like i was on my road king with the same level of confort. Nose diving from braking is very little, which makes it feel like it stops quicker. Pulling the front up from accelerating is very little where it felt like i was pulling the forks all the was out before. They set it up for her and my weight with it loaded, I rode it solo weds and it is alittle firm in the rear but nothing that i would change for me alone. Gonna play with it with her and see what fine tuning would do. I am very happy with their staff,work and product, it finally feels planted to the road and not skipping around. Keep in mind that i never rode the ultra before having it lowered with the HD stuff, but i know that it was a h@ll of alot looser and softer that my 03 road king that is not lowered.
