Shocks

Mounted, but not used...that's what the man says.

Bear in mind that these Progressives are 12" shocks which are lower than the stocko's 12.5". This will give ground clearance problems when fitted to a Rocket. Davo

Nah...they're 4209C's at 12.5 inches. The lister is questioned about this at the bottom of the page, and he says he made a mistake.

No Scotty, just thought I'd secure an extra set for who ever wants 'em downunder. By all means make a bid, if you win the bid you get em, if I get 'em, I'll be happy to pass 'em on for cost. If neither of us gets 'em, no doubt someone else'll be 'appy :-D Stay tuned.

Cheers, Davo
