I think I'm just gonna pick those up new also. Thinking about picking up some new shocks but I don't know which one's or from where. I was thinking about picking up some from mikesxs.com but I haven't found any reviews on them.... BTW did you know that Yammies come with progressive shocks from the factory?
    No didnt know that. Interesting. I just won a pair of Progressive 14 inchers for 20 bucks on fleabay. Im giving them to mriddle tho since i already have a set, and he's doing the same swingarm convert i did. Yours is an "L" right? or an E?

        Well i havent got them yet. And its been a week nearly. I sent him a mail today, cos he has yet to send any shipping info. Might be a jackass. If so i'll file a claim, see what happens, if i get no satisfaction at least it was only 20 bucks. you shocks eye to eye? I see deals all the time on those. Eye to clevis are a lil harder to come by. if they are eye to clevis try searching for honda shocks too. They work. I am watching a set of CB1100 shocks right now. 14.5 inchers.

              Check these out. Pretty nice. You;ll have to see if the eyelets are the right size, but if not you can prolly get grommets to make em so. Come in assorted lenths too.
