Shocks

Nulle,

I bit the bullet and got the Progressive 412 shocks. A little salty to say the least, but no more bouncing from foot to foot...I have a 28" inseam and now sit in the saddle with both feet on the ground.

[Nulle]

yup thats just what i need
thanks

[Nulle]

Still shopping = looks like I better go with the 11" !?

Hey Guys!
I'm thinking about doing the same thing ( a bit short myself).
Did you lower the forks also?
And.......how does it handle? Any problems with the side stand etc.?
Thanks
Tom
BTW This site is awesome!! Has saved me several times so far!

Been gone a few days...sorry for the delay. I went 11". It has made a great improvement on my ride. I did not do anything to the front end and it sits and handles great.

and yes...the kick stand needs to be altered...I used a torch with the buddy system. He was under the bike, I was on top gitting the right tilt.

Thanks for the info!
Do those shocks come in all black?
I have an LG and don't want chrome.....

[JTodd]

I think they do. I have seen them in the Dennis Kirk cataloge before but ordered mine from my local bike shop. The other place to look would be accwhse.com

Good Luck
