Roadster rear shocks upgrade?

Good sh!t mate , glad they were all you expected Rang about my Hagons today , told me they'd be here by Tuesday ... i cant wait.
 

same here !! that also is why 90% of german R3 have wilberg shocks mounted front and back ..
 
I switched to 13" Progressive 440s. Went with the HD (heavy duty) for those long trips with lots of luggage. They completely fixed the issue. My Classic used to chuck my 220lb ass straight out of the seat and was dangerous as hell. Now all is great.
 
Sounds like I need to start looking at shocks.... I'm tired of getting the kicked of seat feeling myself. Those EMC look like they are very well engineered.

Hey, albertduke, How do you back them off just a bit. I got them to set it a bit firmer but as I'll be riding solo for a while would like to back it off a bit.
Are you familiar with the Type 642 setup?

I personally used rebound damper to set the shocks to my liking
3 clicks from minimum and reset the coils one inch from full extend that is my personal best at 200lbs when seating if I go riding two up I add one click and one half inch tighter on the coils again personal set up for my wife 160lbs
I am not familiar with the 642 setup what is it????
 
Ok Wilber fans..... What part number for the Wilbers??

Where did you purchase your shocks if you live in the USA???

Are there more than one type shock from Wilbers that fits the R3?

I find their website confusing

I believe three models do fit all R3 but the T .sorry cannot remember the numbers I have the least expensive next model has outside cartridge (more money) and third more damping and preload settings from remote cartridge (even more money)
