Dudes,
I've changed about every-damn-thing on my scoot that can be changed withe the exception of rear shocks.
Any of you guys have opinions on Progressive shocks?
With them having so many flavors available, 412-418-420-440-and so on...it gets kind of confusing as to which one to buy.
I'm not interested in air suspension shocks.
I'll be going with the 11.5" in whichever flavor I choose.
I have the 11.5 412's and I love them... Riding 2 up most of the time we used to bottom out but not anymore with the progressives...I think they are better all the way around...I had a issue with the air shocks harley puts on from the factory...Never liked them from day one....
I just put 12.5" 412's on my Ultra, lowered it a bit but still an overall better ride than the stock shocks. I can't say it's like having a racing suspension but they are fine.
