Default Aftermarket Shocks for 06 Streetbob

Has anyone added aftermarket shocks to an 06 Street Bob with good results? I'm interested in a Sport ride through the turns and more adjustment possibilities to handle GVWR w/ passenger and gear while keeping a quick handling sport ride when I'm solo. Am wondering about the Progressive 440's. Thanks for your help. Jay

I have the Progressive 418's and love them. Great adjustability.

I've got the Progressive 412s and they are fantastic. Haven't had to move them off the first setting yet. And they are not the heavy duty ones.

Lo,

Are those the 11in? If so, are you comfortable with the more upright lean of the bike on the jiffy?

Whiff,

I have the 11" 412's. I am a little more considerate of where I park because of the lower lean angle, but it hasn't presented a real problem. I do make sure to park on certain sides of the street. On level ground it's no problem, although one day I'll probably get the shorter stand.

Thanks, man. I'm usually always parked on level ground. I may consider these (again).

Whiff
