Thank you! I'm 90% sure that the model is 465-1148 which is compatible with the list below. I'd just like to get a confirmation from someone who installed one.

Cheers,

BTW, it's probably going to be the same as for a Classic as many of the Drifters parts come from that bike.

No problem!

The forum software limits new members from doing some things because of spammers.

Thank you! Funny thing is I read a few posts on this topic yet no one mentions the model number. I emailed a few board members, hopefully I can get the answer shortly as my stock shock is pretty much done.

Cheers,

You can't contact him because of your low post count.  You get that ability at either 2 or 5 posts, I can't remember which.  Give this a read: http://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/forum/index.php?topic=3437.0

Hi - Hopefully someone can help me. I noticed on this forum that a rider has installed a progressive suspension shock on his 99 drifter 800. Unfortunately the post doesn't say what model it is. I tried to contact the person who posted "tripwire" but the forum won't allow me to contact him. For some reason I get an error.

I called progressive suspension today and they can't confirm the fitment. Would someone know if it's model 465-1148? I don't want to drop $500 on something that will not work.

Thank you,
bungl
