Title: Performance shocks
Post by russ_g on 05/15/06 at 14:28:08

Is there a recommended shock for the Savage? yes I'm lazy and am looking to learn from others who have been down this path.

A lot of posts on this - no idea what you mean by a "Performance Shock"

A much better shock than stock is the Progressive 412

if you want the stock bike stance:

412-4232C for a soft ride @90/130lb springs
412-4233C for a firm ride @115/155lb springs

might want to search on these

"performance" just means better than stock to me - had to call them something I guess. Anyway thanks for the info - I'll search on the info you've posted.

LOL, then you could basically just put some springs on it to fit that definition.

Seriously though, the 412's are a big improvement, the 418's would be even better and the 440's are the cushy upgrades. Of course, unless you get a great eBay deal, there's a pretty big price difference too. I have the 412's on mine and like them a lot.
