Hey Keith! :drink: Went with progressive standard 31-2500 monotubes in the front and the 940's in the rear. With the 940's advertising 1" lower ride I wasn't sure which monotube to go with...
Progressive replied and advised as follows: "If you do not need to lower the front end much for your personal interests what I would do is run the 940 on the rear and the standard 31-2500 on the front and leave out the preload spacers. That will drop the front end about 1/2 inch and set it up perfect and it rides really great!"
Only have about 100 miles in the saddle since picking up scooter but there was a noticeable difference just on the ride home. I'm satisfied. I am playing with the ride adjustment on the rear 940's. Started home with them set at 1 ring and seemed OK, moved it to 2 rings and haven't rode enough on 2 to decide. I will play with them and find a sweet spot like I did on my SEEG.

Well, I have been riding for a few weeks and really am satisified with the progressive 940's on the rear and monotubes in the front. I was advised by progressive to leave out the preload spacers in the front, that will lower the front about 1/2" and have a great ride. They were right and had a noticeable difference when I lower my feet at a light. :2vrolijk_21: I also got my speaker trim rings and some other goodies on the bike since I last posted and will post them pictures next. I have also had some time in both saddles (SEEG and SEUC) and when I got on my new SEUC after dropping off my SEEG...what a noticeable difference in ride and handling. I'm glad I got my new Yellow Jacket and got it the way I want it now. God Bless! :2vrolijk_21:

Got these Custom Vehicle Operations medallians and they were smaller than expected but found a good place on my glove box covers. :bananarock:

Added these on like I did on my SEEG. Thought they looked good and held in place for over 5 yrs so I put them on here along with rear speaker trim. :2vrolijk_21:
