Progressive Shocks
I been reading the threads on progressive shocks and want to know if there is a way you can look at a Voyager XII and determine whether or not it has progressives installed.

Re: Progressive Shocks
The rear shocks have a Progressive label on them, around the upper cap over the spring. Aside from that, you would need to have a photograph of the shocks, to visually compare. The only way to know if the fork springs are Progressive, is to pull them. Cheers!

Re: Progressive Shocks
My Progressive shocks are chrome plated with exposed chrome springs. On the original Voyager they look a little like old car shocks with rubber boots on them.
