I would gladly shell out up to $150 for a set, but I may have to wait a while if I can't find them for any less than that.
When on ebay you want to go to Ebay Motors, then motorcycles, then parts and accessories. When there, enter "progressive shocks" into the search box and hit your "enter" key or "search" button. You will get everything in the motorcycle parts and accessories section that has anything to do with "progressive". You will usually find 20-30 items, most of which are shocks...some new and some used. I just looked and there are 31 items there.
I got a used pair of Progressive shocks this week for $36.75, and that included shipping. There was a brand new pair of Progressive shocks up for auction that ended about 10 minutes ago, the reserve price was only $75 but the high bid was only $10.25 so no one got the shocks. But for just $75 you could have got a brand new set if you would have been watching the auction. Since they did not sell the shocks I have sent them an email and offered them a price, if they accept then I have a new pair of shocks for a cheap price, if they do not accept the offer then I have lost nothing.
You mentioned that the price of a lot of the shocks are close to or above $200. That is true, but the fun thing is that there are shocks which are offered at much lower starting prices. You just watch the auctions and bide you time...sometimes the prices go too high, but sometimes you can get a set for very low prices...usually used ones, but some are new. Like the set I just made the offer on, you could have had it for $75. Brand new and all chrome.
