    Piggyback Rear Shocks for GS850G?

    Hi Gang.

    Well... after rebuilding the brake system last winter, I've decided that this year's update will consist of new rear shocks/springs.

    Already looked at the Progressive and Hagon offerings. Either would work fine with my Progressive front springs.

    I'd really like the look of the piggyback shocks, however.

    Looking at the YSS Eco series currently, based on the searches I've done.

    Any other recommendations? I'm 6'3", 245lbs, if that matters.

    Thanks.

    Two more things....

    I'm thinking up to $500 or so is reasonable.

    Remote reservoir is also an option.

      YSS seem to be the cheapest of the better shocks. Works are more money. Hagon and Progressive are reputed to be decent enough if you are on a budget.
