Progressive Springs, worth it?
Written by eegah_yai on 10/6/2010 at 01:35 am

The Progressive springs are a really good improvement for the money, and as your
already going to remove the forks for your oil change, there isn't any extra
work do to.
As stated, they keep the front end from diving or bottoming out, and keeps the
front end more stable on tar snakes etc. on curves. The only problem I've had
with mine, and it seems I'm alone in this, is that mine squeak very loudly when
going over even small bumps, like old bed springs. I talked to Progressive
customer service about this, and they said it would probably go away. But it is
still there after 4-5 years.
