2LZ, after the long process of adjusting the stock shock, I was mostly satisfied.

But from riding other bikes over the years, I realized it could be better.

For example, my Indian Scout, with only 3 inches of shock travel, has a smoother ride over rough roads than the RX3.

In search of the smoother ride, I had CSC put on the Progressive shock. For pavement riding, it seems better/smoother to me.

But I'm not sure it's $500 US better, ....off-road I'm not convinced.
