Excellent news Bengt. Yep, what a difference a good pr of shocks make. I'm also really glad you bought them from our very own Fast Eddy, cos I can tell you for certain he charges me at least half the price of shipping to Aus compared to certain other competition. Happy riding mate.

I'd be happy to. I'm sure they would do their job!

I changed the front springs into progressives a couple of years ago. Made a big difference.

And so with progressive front and back are you saying it gets rid of the warble and wobble one gets when negotiating twisties with a bit of bumps at a 'fun' rate of speed? I mean we're not talking the Isle of Man here but just a leisurely snort through some tight turns with a bit of attitude. I run stock front and back and experience uncomfortable warbles. Nothing that would knock me off my bike but just...well, uncomfortable because of the warble thing.

Yes, that's about it. ALMOST like IOM. Seriously though, I'm extremely happy with the suspension now. I thought I had it sorted with my Hagons, but had no chance to compare them to others than the OEM. Have to admit I was wrong (second time since 1973  ) and as I said, it was the Polish roads that really opened my eyes! No warbles (new word for me), no rear end wandering and a boost in confidence. Perfect!
