Thanks for the help on the springs and thanks for the lunch.  I hope Jake had a good afternoon after we left and quit bothering him.  LOL.  Thanks again for hosting.

Progressive fork springs for the VTX, not the Goldwing ones.

I have a brand new Honda tappet wrench that you are welcome to use if you want to cancel the order....Just a thought. I think I am about 10-15min(or less) from your house.  Send me a PM if you want and we can work something out.

Good! You'll enjoy those! I got the Goldwing and although I'm impressed with the handleing so much more than before (over stock), sometimes I feel their too much, specially when you hit a slight drop off and you feel the front shocks bang and slam to a full extention.  :ohwow: :ohwow: On the other hand I do like'em cause dropping my rear shock length 3/4" and the front is up 2" makes the corners that you would or used to drag your pegs on go away. Have kinda felt like a VTX Grand Prix rider sometimes. Hope I don't hit the tilt over kill switch someday!  :ohwow: That would be  :redcard: :redcard:

Well I'm new here but would have loved to come.  I just got the parts in for the Pair mod and replacing the shock bushings.  I guess I joined a month too late.  Next time something like this comes up, let me know.

We need to have another one.  I put an air conditioner in my garage for summer time work.  I need to do a pair valve mod and some coolant changes, a couple of oil changes and a few other things.
