I'll give no particulars but since no one else has kicked in.....It's a simple common sense job with no surprises. Just give the shock a careful look to see how it's mounted and how the swing arm moves in concert with it...and then proceed. Bogdan

Sergio, It's a piece of cake. Start taking stuff off, switch shocks, and put it all back on in reverse order. Be sure to lube all the bearings while you have the linkages apart. I just put a Progressive Series 420 on my bike this week. WHY did I wait so long to do this? Sweet! Lamar A14 Hi! everyone. Tomorrow, I'm going to help a friend to change he's rear shock.

The gasket that is used in the stock boat anchor muffler (aka Tweety) will not work when attempting to fit it between the midpipe and a different muffler. It cost me $15 to figure this out. (15 bucks for a gasket?!) Go with the high temp silicon. Lamar A14 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
