JMHO!

I had a pair of Progressive 940's shocks that replaced my stock HD 12" air shocks.

The improvement was tons better then stock. One of the main reasons I upgraded other then the ride comfort, my stock shocks would leak, and pumping and/or checking tire pressure got very old.

For the value, they are a good shocks.

I will say that I have recently upgraded to a set of shocks that Howard sells. And the ride is tons better then Progressive 940's.

To be fare, regarding Progressive shocks, they (riders) say that the Progressive 944's are a better ride then the Progressive 940's.

Getting the proper sag setting, adjusting shocks for one up & two up, or two up touring is really the secret to a comfortable ride with Progressive Shocks and ANY Shocks!

Good Luck,

YB
