Progressive Suspension is extended its race inspired 970 Piggyback Reservoir Shocks applications already available for the Harley Dyna and Sportster to the V-Rod chassis. For those requiring a suspension for bikes doing much more than weekend coffee runs, the hand built in the USA, 970 Series shocks combine a high pressure gas monotube design with deflective disc damping routed through two unique circuits and adjustable for compression damping via an easily accessible knob.
These high performance suspension shocks feature a shock body and piggyback that are both coated internally to reduce friction and then capped with a forged aluminum upper. The shock is wrapped with a progressive rate coil spring that can be fine tuned via threaded preload adjusters to suit a riders weight and riding style (we like them firm in the corners!). Available in 12.5″ (318mm) or 13″ (330mm) in black or bronze anodizing. Fitment for 2007-2014 V-Rod, VRSCA, VRSCD, VRSCAW, VRSCX, VRSCDX and VRSCF. Check it out on their site or contact your local Progressive Suspension dealer for more information.
A great improvement to an already great bike.
Now, if they could only improve upon the cruising range…..
Jim Castro, Rick’s in Germany makes a larger tank for them but they aren’t cheap…at all
