You can't tell by the pictures that I have red paint under the mud guard and fender for protection of my undercoating.

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 )
