MidnitEvil Q: “I don't believe you.”
I believe only a man would stand in front of another before calling member Jay Risk a liar. If you can not find Jays address please go to my site and stop on by the address provided. Please talk to me in person in the same manor you post. I believe you should have more respect for others and know who you are talking to before making false accusations or in the same manor you have in the past. I guarantee you do not do it in person or around your own town where someone actually can speak to you, only on the keyboard.

I think you have a stick stuck in your *** or something. You should have quoted my entire comment, including the
at the end of it.I am going to send you a free sense of humor. I want you to try it in place of whatever you might be using now. You will note there are some tweaks you can do to it, adjusting it to suit your style. I suggest you not mess with these initially, as I think adjusting it to your sense of style would probably render it useless.
P.S.

As stated before I do not have Jays shocks in stock but there are many other uses for shocks. You can order every part you need and have it built at the factory before shipping (buy for the model of bike & your weight & ridding style). I used what I had and made it fit the application. This same shock body can be used in many applications, not just motorcycles. The internals must be changed to switch applications. If you buy a set of shocks from the factory for an application, you get the shock built for that application. No need to custom build them.

Sure, WP, Wilbers, Hyperpro, Bitubo, Fournales, Hagon, & of course some Works which you already know about. Do your own research and you will find more choices.

Uhmm... I'm pretty sure that MidnitEvil was only JOKINGLY trying to score a free set of mystery shocks. Take it easy FastHarley. We all appreciate you sharing your vast knowlege of suspension with us (and you will be the first person that I ask when I have a question), but I think you come off as having a slight god complex. I almost feel like Yoda is trying to get us all to find the force inside ourselves. I for one admit that I know less than you have already forgotten about shocks; but straight answers rather than scripture to the kindom of (shock) heaven will sit better with most of us. That being said...thanks again!

Howard Just give everyone an example... you spent all this time posting about your shock ideas and yet you have not show anyone anything... A simple short how to, guide, link to order shock parts ,what manufacturers are best for these things would go great with all your insults, challenges, and woeful misinterpreting of other members posts...I think all anyone wants you to do is quit talking in circles and get to your point by typing a few sentences and providing useful links. If you don't want to, fine, I would say you are giving progressive even more business by behaving this way. I am not typing this to make you angry or argue with you... I just want you to type something that will prove your point and help an end user like me and the others to make a more educated decision..
