Talk to Gordon at MG Cycle. He can tell you what you need and supply you
with the correct springs and shocks.

 Guzzoids,

Wanted to replace stock 12.5" rear shocks on my '72 Eldo. Progressive
seems
 to be the answer, but they recommend a 13" shock. I'm reluctant to make
the
 bike any taller, but I understand there is a downside to using 12"ers
(fluid running from trans. to rear drive?).

And just how difficult would it be to replace fork stock springs with some
of those new progressive winds?

Any thoughts/recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Alan P.
