Can't hurt to try. If you mostly ride on the street, and have to deal with 
less than perfect roads, then I bet the progressive springs would be an 
improvement. If you spend a lot of time at the track, or ride roads that are 
smooth, then perhaps a straight-wound spring of the correct stiffness would 
be better. A buddy of mine just RaceTech'd his front end and found it to be 
on the stiff side for our bumpy PA roads. Probably works great at the track.
