The difference is noticeable, but not radical – let’s say it takes the edge off. Now, the handling is smoother, just as positive and fine with one arm resting on the windowsill. I can make quick moves at highway speed without it feeling like a go-kart. Last, thanks to the caster adjustment I was waiting to do, I can bring it up to 70mph on the highway with no 55mph wobble.

Very happy with my FE now – would do it this way again if I were to start over.
Thanks for sharing
