Any tips for the install? I'm putting them on Friday.
Straight forward install, nothing complicated about it. First, you'll need a jack to be able to raise and lower bike to accommodate slight adjustment to align shock bolts. Disconnect air lines, etc. for HD shocks and remove one side at a time. Follow Progressive directions and install appropriate bushings in shock eyes. Bushings face inboard, reuse shock bolts and lockwasher with flat washer supplied in the kit. Use some loctite "blue" on shock bolt threads and hand tighten. Start with top bolt, then lower bolt. Ratchet down on bolts and torque to 40 ft lbs. Repeat process on the opposite side.
Shocks come from the factory set at softest setting. I don't know you weight or whether you ride solo or two up, but I would start with adjusting the pre-load on the shock so the first ring is exposed, then test ride. If you bottom out, adjust to the second ring. It's trial and error and will depend on how you ride.
