Default what replacement rear shocks for SG
So I blew my seals on the stock rear shocks.

What's the best replacements?

I'm 270 and want to keep the stock stance.

Thanks

two best out there are Progressive and Works.... I really looked at both and went with the Works... great customer service and I was close enough (4 hour ride) to them to actually go there and have them installed. What I liked about Works is they talked to me and got our combined weight and made the shocks for US and our weight/riding.. Wife loves the new feel over the rear tire.
Neither is cheap by any means.... do your homework and talk to both
