Progressive

Does your motorcycle feel harsh, bouncy or under-damped on bad roads? Progressive Suspension makes motorcycle suspension with a particular focus on cruisers and touring bikes. Here you’ll find rear shocks, fork springs, fork kits and lowering solutions that can give a more comfortable and controlled ride, both solo and with a passenger and luggage.

Suspension for cruisers and touring bikes

Progressive Suspension is an American brand especially well known among Harley-Davidson owners, but the range also covers many Japanese and other cruisers and touring motorcycles. The name reflects the principle behind many of its springs: progressively wound springs that are soft at the start of the travel and get firmer the more they compress. This gives comfort over small bumps and support when bigger hits or extra load come along.

Progressive’s key products

Rear shocks are the most popular purchase. They come in several series with different designs, from simple shocks with adjustable preload to more advanced models, in both standard and lowered lengths. For the front fork, Progressive offers progressive fork springs and complete fork kits that give better support under braking and less dive. There are also lowering kits and fitting accessories. See each product for the models and years it fits.

Frequently asked questions

What is the benefit of progressive springs?

A progressive spring is soft at first and gets firmer the more it compresses. This gives a comfortable ride over small bumps and at the same time more support over big bumps, with a passenger or with luggage.

Can I lower my motorcycle with Progressive shocks?

Yes, many of the shocks are available in shorter lengths that lower the rear. Keep in mind that lowering reduces travel and ground clearance, and that front and rear should be matched. See the description on each product.
