Thanks bikerlaw and I guess I'll know once they are on but since I mostly ride solo I should be fine with these shocks. The few times I ride 2 up she only weighs 115.

Call me the exception. 12" Progressive HD's and I love them. I weigh 220 but weighed about 250 when I got them. Liked them then and like them now. Like them as in feel the need for nothing else, not like them as in I'm settling because I don't want to spend anymore money or try to figure out how to make them better.
