Progressive Suspension Rear Shocks
Modded a New Pair of Progressive Suspension Rear shocks today, they are Nitrogen filled shocks with progressive wound springs.
These Rear Progressive suspension shocks were for a 1986' GL1200 Goldwing.
Started off by Cutting the bottom mounting lug off, 90deg. bend in 3-16" x 1" steel plate,and put a cap plate, then welded to bottom of shock, Painted.
Started at about 2:00 done at about 4:00.
I have only sat on the bike i have not ridden it yet as I am tired had dinner and now it is rest time.
i took some picture's, i will post them soon as i can.
removed my Goldwing air shocks as they were both leaking ATF down the shocks, my bike had a Very nice ride with the Goldwing air shocks but the were leaking, so now they will be a backup pair for the Suzy 650, I will have to go through them when i can and clean them and check all seals and replace what is bad.

Silver shocks are the old Honda ones. He is showing the required end changes for the progressive to fit a burgman. :cheers:
