I've had the Progressives in for about 4000 miles and definitely like them. Very glad I changed, and no issues at all.

I installed the progressive suspension (944-4020UT/ 31-2501) about 5000 mls ago. It is on the most roads an improvement above the standard shocks. However when the road surface is very bumpy I prefer the standard setup.

But overall I am glad I changed the shocks.

I had the cartridges insstalled in the forks and put 444s on the rear.  Only have about 400 miles on them now, still trying to find the sweet spot for my weight.  I called the factory and talked to the rep, he gave some ideas on adjustments.  I made the adjustments he recommended, so far I really like the set up.

The 444's are for soft tails and your are using them for touring...you will never find the sweet spot......assuming you are just trying to lower the bike. Believe me I've been there. Save your money and spend it on Legend air suspension.
