I am amazed how many people leave those ugly guards on, yours looks nice with the chrome pully, is that just a chrome cover or did you change the whole pully?

anyway, I loosened the right side shock bolt and pulled the thing completely out, it wasn't compressed, and it slid right in? are my shocks bad? mind you I have the lowered shocks, but I don't know if that matters?

let me know guys!

No, there is probably nothing wrong with your shocks. Assuming the bike was leaning on the jiffy stand, there was minimum load on the right shock. The stand and left shock were carrying the bulk of the load.

I changed both my stock shocks out for progressives by myself without a jack simply by setting the opposite shock to max preload and the shock to be removed to minimum preload.
