Got the 444 Progressive shocks installed today. If you are thinking about getting these shocks or getting aftermarket shocks go ahead and do yourself a favor!

My bike rides like cadillac compared to what it used to. Takes the bumps like a champ now! I'm so happy I did this!

Pros
Rides a whole lot better ( The rear of the bike doesn't shoot you out of the saddle )
Handles a whole lot better ( The rear of the bike just feels clamped in the corners )
Lowered the bike just a shade even though these was supposed to be stock ride height. ( I like it better this way )
The shocks weigh MUCH less than the old ones.
They're black instead of chrome

Cons
I wished they had sent black washers for the studs. ( I will black them out later )

Do they come in Pacific Blue??

Where have I seen that color combination before? Red and black? My buddy has a black lab retriever. Hum ........what was the lab doing?

I think the shocks look better than chrome, in my opinion. They look good.
