progressive

I haven't seen any discussion about these specific air shocks. Has anyone tried these shocks? Any thoughts are welcome. I am starting to look at suspension upgrades. Thanks, Pat

well after looking around to get 440 or 430 shocks inch taller I found a set 440 on ebay that are 12 1/2 HD for my bike and I had a few hundred in my paypal account and got them..BUTTTTT I found these on amazon and almost got them in the 12 1/2 but like I said I had money in paypal and amazon...

Does anyone else have a problem with the search function on this site? It won't search for items with 3 characters or less. :bang head: I have tried to find info on the effect 11.5" Progressive 440 shocks have on handling, specifically ground clearance. Also, how much does it lower the rear...

Ok V-max gurus- I just picked up a set of 2000 forks for my 85, and need to know if there is a way to determine whether the existing springs in them are factory, or progressive. Is there a way to tell visually, or maybe measure the coil thickness to figure it out for sure? Thanks, Stan:ummm:

Just put my new progressive springs lowering kit on only lowered it 1" on the ride home from my buddies house wow what a difference the front end dive is gone feels good I put 15W maxima fork oil and all new seals I'm liking it taking her out today again put a new clutch in her also my baby is...

Okay, I've read a bunch of threads on what front suspension upgrades best work on the V-Max. I've seen many threads on Progressive springs and Ricor Intiminators and those who use Race Tech springs along with the Gold Valve emulators. My brother has a 2007 V-Max and is leaning towards Ricor...

I just watched sean's video. In the vid, the progressive spring was 1/4 inch longer than stock. If I only change the spring, is it critical that I take the 1/4 inch off the spacer.:ummm: Don't know how to do a poll, but I'm curious to see which is preferred. progressive or racetech (springs...

Hi guys , I'm considering reworking my suspension on my 2007 , I have a nice pile of parts that are going on the bike but don't want to go to low on the suspension or have any scraping or rubbing . All my parts are not installed right now . Fatdaddy 18" with ME 880 180 Kerker K white tip exhaust...

Hello, just wandering if anyone is running the new progressive 444, check there web site and I think the 440 was replace with that model, just wants to know if they really worth the money before I buy them, thanks!

anyone have these? thinkin of picking up a set for hopefully a touch lower than their asking price of 200. He said they are 11 1/2' eye to eye. If I remember right that is exactly the size I was looking for.

Does anyone have any Progressive 412 shock adapter bushings? Or maybe a source for thin walled pipe to fab some? I need all four (4).

OK so tomorrow I am trashing those soft OEM springs in favor of Progreassive ones, thanks to Kevman. In the past (with spindly forks on '86 + prog ) I used 15W fork oil, and felt an improvement. I also seem to remember someone (was it Sean?) saying you could use ATF as fork fluid, but not...

So this may be a newbie question, but thought I would throw it out here before I dub too deep. I cannot seem to determine how to adjust these shocks. Some of the 412 it seems dont have the chrome covers that come all the way to the bottom of the shock and it would be pretty straight forward to...

So, I got a set of Progressive 440's for the rear of the '94. Got a sweet deal on them from Kyle here on the forum. I installed the set and HOLY SHIT! are they ever stiff. It's like riding my '57 Pan hardtail. With the wife on back, they are perfect. The spring preload adjuster is at the softest...

I needed to have my fork seals done, the shop I usually take my bike to charges $160 to do em. I decided to do them myself after reading on here that it wasn't too difficult. Thanks to Morley's YouTube vids on the subject, I was able to do the job. I also decided to use the $$ I was saving and...

I have a few sets available for the 418C 11.5" shocks. Retail is $600 normally. Looking at $350 plus shipping (normally I sell for $430 plus shipping). I do not know how many sets I have available. First priority will be given to emails followed by PM's and requests on here. EMAILS (NOT PM's)...

Hi, anyone know anything about Progressive 412-4223c Rear shocks? I currently have them: http://motorcycle-accessories.cruisercustomizing.com/accessories/412-4233c?utm_campaign=sitechampion&utm_medium=sli&utm_source=google on my bike, the 11" one. Is... it bad? is it good? I have not the...

I picked up a Corbin seat and the seller threw in some shocks and extra springs. Progressive 14 Series (13 inch): 14-1283B and black springs 03-1394/B: 75/120. He worked for Yamaha and used to do testing on V-max. Said they'd fit, but I don't see that model of shocks cross-referenced for the...

I just saw that one of my fork seals is leaking really bad and I plan to upgrade my springs at the same time. If I get the spring kit from you does that include the seals and all that I need? also It seams that everyone lowers there bikes and I see that you have a kit for the 2" drop. think...
