hmm..good idea for a tire stand..when i changed my shocks to the Progressive 422's..i jacked the bike up high enough then used my chest to hold the swingarm up.. it wasn't my best moment..but it worked.

Welcome to the world, our world, of the Shotgun Shock! You will never regret it and the fun has only now just begun. Your bike will be the envy of all the bikes sitting out in front of your favorite hang out. You will get a ton of questions and when at the bar a ton of free drinks! Most important is that you are now going to experiance a ride like no other bike. As it has been said you can fine tune it on the fly to your own taste, riding style and comfort. I don't know what you have up front but I dropped mine an inch and put the progressive monotubes in up front, what an incredible ride. The Shotgun is the best but the monotubes really compliment it well. As for JD? Best person in business I ever dealt with, a straight up guy. If all business's were like that they might get a few more customers and people who return too. The Shotgun speaks for itself when you ride with it on. I have yet to hear 1 single bad thing about the shock or JD's service. It's a nice little penny but again it is worth every penny too. Congrates Dude.
