I'd like to get some feedback on a Progressive 420 for my '83 R80G/S. I'm in the market for a re-buildable aftermarket shock, but don't do any off-roading, hence my choice for the lower end of the suspension spectrum.





1971 R75/5
1972 R60/5
1983 R80G/S
1983 R100RS


See ya in Vermont! :dunno

Although I have no experience with your specific model, I can comment on the works shocks. I have them on my Airhead and had a set on my Oilhead. I really like the Works shocks for price, fit and finish, rebuildability, and performance. I have also had two sets rebuild by them and I am happy with their service and customer service. Overall, I plan to have them on all my future bikes.
Food for thought..... :eat :drink
