Default Progressive Shock.

Ok i am ready to buy new rear shock so does anyone know the pros and cons of going with 14.25 inch 412 and i will also be getting the progressive front fork springs. Also are the 412 going to be stiffer than my stockers.
Thanks Daniel

I have progressives on my bike both in the forks and the rear ( I lowered the bike by 2 and 1/2 inches with them) . I love them.

What's the length of the standard rear shocks on the "R"? The Progressives are very nice and will give you a slightly firmer ride depending on how you adjust them, I have them on one of my other bikes and plan to get them for the Sporty soon.

Cheers,

Mark
