What's the verdict on these
"Progressive Rate" Springs
I keep hearing about?

Is it just a matter of Incompatible Shocks?
That is to say, the Shocks Wont Adjust
To the variable rate of the Springs?

Anybody running these that might like to give us
A report / opinion?

The Comfort Factor seems
quite High on them  to me?

And they do give about a 2" rise in height.

Best,
JC...

So the conventional wisdom says that '85 springs give the tallest ride
height.  Is there a difference between GL springs and Westy springs?
IOW, are Westy springs taller than GL springs?

TIA,
