Installation was really not that hard, this gives you a chance to grease a lot of the bearings because they are right there. I had called progressive and asked about the preload, and after a short talk I added 2 more turns to the preload prior to mounting, was easier to do in the vice then on the bike. I then adjusted the dampener to 4 and it has made a huge difference to the handling of the bike and to the ride after the original shock. For me it was well worth the funds.

Hello there Jack!  I know the northern CDNRatman has put a progressive on his Sunbeam Red and said he really likes it.  I expect he'll be along to give you the details soon...
