got the shot gun shock set up this weekend at the Laughlin river run. I really want to thank JD and the crew they made us fill at home like we had known them for years. also thanks to Jeff and Kelly for hanging with us during the install. the ride is great my wife has been unable to ride since last years ride she had back surgery. she rode with me all weekend with know problems she is very happy to be back on the bike. I should have got them installed along time ago great set up.

 

Ahhhhh... Another convert!

 

Damn it guys, just when I've convinced myself to go with the Progressive 422 RAPs one of you drag be back into questioning whether or not I should go with the SS.

Will you guys just stop complimenting Shotgun Shocks and JD!!!!!!!!!!

 

Can't stop, undoubtedly the single best mod I've done to my bike.

I know Bluraven thinks we are just a bunch of cheerleaders but just at SoCalSlim....he thought the same thing, UNTIL he actually bought it and rode with them.

Then he was a cheerleader also.

 

I don't think, I know you guys are SS cheerleaders and I've read very little to dispute it other than the cost.

I've certainly read enough to know I want the SS, I just don't think I've read enough to know if I should spend the coin on them.

Maybe JD could lend me a set to test drive.
If all is as many have said, I'd gladly keep them and not think twice about the money.

 

That makes ZERO sense. Lol

If you have read enough to know you want them, why would JD need to let you try them before buying them?

 

Actually, in a sense, JD did lend SoCalSlim a Shotgun Shock before he bought one, if I heard the story correctly. It just happened to be ON JD's personal Slim. I'll show anyone who wants to see it how it works, and if I know them, I'll possibly let them have a go.

I do get it - it is a chunk of change. I don't regret mine, but I was hedging too for a while, until I finally talked myself into taking the leap. The 6 months no financing deal sealed it for me - I could at least spread out the expense. Couple of hours of overtime a week, and done.

 

Well the Wife thinks the passenger ride of the Heritage is just fine but if the SS is as good as everyone says she might change her tune.

She already knows I want the SS but questions the $1250 price tag.
She told me if I can raise the funds by getting rid of crap in my garage I could buy whatever the funds will allow.

Yea, I'm kitty whipped, but I've also been happily married for over 31 years and from my pic you can see I'm going to keep doing what it takes to keep her because just between you and me I can assure you that I married out of my league .

So in about a month I'm having a garage sale.
I hope she doesn't miss any of her ****, or at least not notice it until the SS is installed .

If I only raise $550 it looks like it will be Progressive 422 RAPs

I know JD reads the forum, JD you're not into giving to charity are you

 

JD & crew are awesome. I've had my shotgun for a year now and loving it. Saw them over at the Laughlin River Run too. Fun times... Enjoy the new ride..
