So I have a Superglide and my wife has recently complained about the comfort when riding on a near by highway ( I think it's the only highway around with speed bumps). So I am thinking about upgrading to a set of progressive 440's. does anyone have these. Any thoughts, pros and cons?

Any upgrade will be better than the stock setup. I installed a set of Ohlins shocks. Night/Day difference in both ride and safety. I bought from Motorcycle Metal in Fla. Very knowledgeable in H-D suspension improvements. JRI is also a good shock. Check-out McM for some good info.

Thanks for the info. I think I will. I noticed a little tire rub so I might need to add an inch to what's on there now as well

Might want to try just tightening up the shocks. Mine is much better after that change. Darn dealer had it set on "1", and according yo my manual it for "under 135 pounds".

First I tightened up my 01 shocks then I got 440's and they were a world of difference better.

I tightened them last night. It feels a little better. I still want to replace them with something easier to adjust. I'm thinking about taking off the fender and putting spacers between the frame and fender to give a little more clearance on the sides also.
