Do you like them?. I just got the 12 inch progressives. They are a little hard riding, but they had the ultra lows are great for lowering the bike!

I am a little bitter at the cost..
I can say as a positive that I haven't scraped in turns since I went to 13".
Rolling 2up is way cleaner.
Biggest thing- that sketchy loose wobble you feel on the highway when rolling over uneven pavement. The kind that are in-line with the direction of travel. I don't feel that anymore.
So is that unstable feeling from being in a high speed lean when the road has little rolling dips that make the bike bounce. Reminded me of a Cadillac on a country road.
These factors were never apparent on my non-touring bikes. Are they relevant enough to justify the $2k to upgrade?(Front and rear) I don't know if I'd argue they are. However, after removing all the stock crap metal pieces and parts they put in the forks and installing the Legend inserts, I am glad I made the change.
I get it's a touring bike but i ride it like i stole it. I'll try to post a video of what im talking about. Its easier to see what I mean.
