Angry Progressive 440 instructions
I had my bike at the dealer and they complained to me how harsh my SG is. I told them I have progressive shocks set at full softer position. My wife said that my Evo Fatboy ride is smoother than the SG. I reread the instructions and the sticker on the shock said to turn the adjuster this way for softer. So I'm searching around on Youtube and what do you know! Progressive has video instructions on how to set up their shocks. Very informative! I wished they shared this tidbit of info ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO!!!! Once I set these shocks up they work great! There I vented I feel better now thanks for listening!!!!

Here is the link copied from youtube

After I set these shocks up I agree they work great. I just spent 3 years hating them! Better instructions would have eliminated the hatred!!!
