Nice information and thoughts guys.

I am undecided as to what to do with my stock S suspension. My ride is pretty harsh on rougher roads as I am on 18" sport classic IIs. Nice and smooth on good roads Problem is my front end gets too light in climbing turns and can step out on me when going over a bump. I feel a bit too much compliance in long sweepers perhaps this is just down to bushings. My front end does track ruts even with 15mm spacers up front; much less twitchy than before though.

I would like the front end to stay down, be lower and not unweight so much. I don't think the car needs higher rate springs but I would like the car to sit lower. I would think slighty stiffer roll bars would be good along with more suitable damping. It would be nice if it could handle higher frequencies with more compliance while retaining proper damping levels for other conditions.

I was thinking of the M030 with different springs to give me a lower ride height but with a similar spring rate on an S. I am concerned that the damping will not be properly matched with the spring though.

Do any here have feed back on a set up like this. Perhaps there are a good set of Hand Rs that work well
