Finally got rid of that "dirt bike" look in the rear of my Heritage. I installed Progressive 422's adjusted to about 1.5 inches lower than stock. Of course I'm still tweaking the preload to find the happy medium for 1 and 2 up riding.

 

COOL!!! Love the rear tire up inside the fender, especially with the whitewalls.

Ya know, that color is growing on me.....

 

Nice!

Looks good man, I hated how high the rear fender sat on my fatboy. It always bothered me. I finally put the profile low rear shocks from HD. I looked at the progressives but got my profile low set for $75 bucks from a forum member. Couldn't pass that deal up. Mine is lowered about an inch which is right where I wanted it.

 

Looks good.

Besides lowering how do they compare for comfort ?

Looks sharp!

 

nice Crawdad. Always appreciate your posts.

 

I have to be honest on the comfort......... I think anytime you reduce the "travel" of the shock, you give up comfort. With no preload adjustment and 2-up they were too soft and bottomed out. With the preload tightened, seems much better 1-up...... haven't tested it 2-up since the adjustment, but I think it will be fine (based on it being slightly stiff with just me on it). Time and adjustment will tell.............

 

That does look really good... and I agree with Dustmaker - the color does grow on you... I have the same suede green/black color combo.

 

I used to think it was a somewhat rare color combo......... now I guess we could start a club.

BTW... have I mentioned my license plate relo?
