I used a PLATINUM bleed/feed setup for awhile and had no bottoming out. When its adjusted in the sweet spot, it rides great! This system controls the height as well as the firmness. I took it off and now run the stock setup. It's yours for $650.

I ran a Legend system on my '07 FXST. It was ok, but from my research, there are better systems out there.....Check out Shotgun Shocks. Newer design. My complaint about the Legend system is the "pogo" effect.

I agree Im intrigued by the Shotgun system Its about the same price as the Legends System. I dont know anyone that has used it yet. Im also curious to see their "bagger" system they are supposed to be designing.

Beaureed what system are you runnin on ur nitetrain now?
