Shotgun shocks
Ok I have 2 things to discuss
Hello Everyone,
To start off i am riding a 113 cubed special construction soft tail, This bike looks and runs great. . But sometimes due to it being SC what a pain in the *** to do things to. But thats life, Anyway we most of the time we ride 2 up and causing the bike to bottom out over dips. I have tossed the idea of progressive suspension or air. The wife flipped the coin and we went to air.We ran into JD and Jessica at one of the events here in town, and they showed us what they have to offer. Awsome, just what we are looking for air ride with compressor mounted on bike and height and preload adjustments. Took the bike to JD ( shotgun shocks ) and let him work his magic. He hatted it due to it being a Special Construction Bike, but he worked his wonders. Brought the bike home (trailer) and we went for a ride WOW What a great ride and being able to adjust on the fly , what a kick in the ***, Hit bumps and you can hardly feel them. Strongly recommend the people from SHOTGUN SHOCKS FOR YOUR AIR SUSPENSION NEEDS, Thank you JD AND Jessica And will never forget 2up and 1 down .. It helped hehe

I also bypassed the Progressive and went straight to the Shotgun.
At the time, many were posting they had the Progressive and then went Shotgun and should have saved their money and got it first.
They saved me money by posting their experiences.

Nice job! Unfortunately for me i went with bolts and 422's before I finally made it to Shotguns. It would have been way cheaper if i had just gone with Shotgun from the start. Oh well live and learn.

The shotgun continues to amaze me. Riding 2 up yesterday with my girlfriend on the back I set up the shock to be really soft and high to allow for full smooth suspension movement to smooth out the **** roads in MI. She get motion sickness easily especially riding in cars and such, and bumpy roads make it worse, she got off after our hour ride to the restaurant and said she felt great, felt great on the ride home.
My brother was next to me and said he was watching the rear end and said the tire was moving a lot up and down but the bike stayed still. I didn't feel a thing at all, it was amazing.
I love this purchase, by far the best decision I've ever made. I can set it soft for cruising, firm it up for more spirited riding, slam it low for bike night cruise in. It's so versatile and easy to use I love it.
