Have used Progressive springs since 2002. You can adjust the "feel" with different length PVC. The bike comes with progressive wound springs in the forks, but the Progressive springs seem to help a lot.

I just had the Progressive Springs installed, as well as the steering head bearing.  The front end no longer jumps all over the road and the turns are as smooth as butter.

My 01 had very poor fork response. I installed the progressive kit and flushed the fork oil, replaced it with DEXRON III auto trans fluid, Very happy with the results..that was almost 50,000 miles ago.

 I've got a 99 1500 Drifter with about 40,000 miles on it ... I'm thinking about  installing a Progressive spring kit on it because it just seems very soft when I brake  and it also seems that when I hit a hole it hits hard ... So my question is did anyone install this kit and do you feel it made a differance in the ride ... Thanks    Rick
