From what I can see they look good can you get a better maybe more up close picture?How do ya think they'd look on my blacked out bobber?I wouldn't think twice about painting them but the weather's too cold these days to cure paint.

Ok see if I can explain. I went to adjust but noticed they weren't really moving and still felt like a brick. Well in the close up pick you will notice a little tab right above where the shock bolts to the bike,that tab should be welded. So it's to cold to ride and try them out so I think I will call them and see what they tell me.

They're definately not progressives for 69.95. They are supposed to be heavy duty I was hoping they'd work out alright so I don't have to explain to my wife why I need another set of shocks for $200+ if I bought these they'd be the third set, oh well it's only money.
