Hagon nitros

[Rockt3]

Well after listening to all the talk about how ****ty the stock shocks are on the Rocket. Thought I would consider doing a upgrade. I've always been impressed with the Rockets handling esp. for it's mass. So I wasn't thinking there would be that much of an improvement. I didn't want to drop a bunch of cash on something that wouldn't be noticeable. When Nitebell offered up a pair of hardly used Hagons for cheap, figured this is my chance. I've got to say it's incredible the difference it makes. The bike seems to have less push through hard turns much more responsive and I've made a point to go over a few of the roads where I would have problems bottoming out. Didn't hardly feel the bumps or dips. Definitely money well spent.

Those Nitro's sure are good shocks allright and the people at the HQ offer great customer service, even better they are just up the road from me :wink:

Which of theirs do you use? Do they have adjustable damping accessable with Beetle bags fitted? Can the preload be adjusted without removing the bags?
Can you post a link so I can drool until I save up the cash?

Now, you can go with Wilbers (or Progressive) fork springs and SAE 7.5 oil.

You will not believe the difference too !

good shocks and performance springs in the fork....as you say "Definitely money well spent !"
