The Progressive 440 shocks are installed on the new T. In that pic they're hidden behind the bags. Also in the forks reside Progressive springs. The forks are braced with a Superbrace which you can see in the picture.

Anticipating your question, does all that improve ride and handling? I have no idea! It all made my old ACE more stable in big 65 mph sweepers where it used to wallow a bit. And the Superbrace looks bitchin'! (to me, anyway)

Yes they do look Spirit like. I gave them to a buddy repairing an old Suzuki of all things.

The bars that came on your T are from a Shadow Spirit. I have a set on my T and love them. You should have no problem selling them here or on www.hondashadow.net .

I had no doubts you were going to love it. Just wait until those temps fall a little and you'll enjoy it even more.

Uh! Please tell me that you are using a jack adapter to lift it with.

After going through your new bike like you did, I would say your bike is newer than new Kevin. Man, you worked that baby over. I am glad you are so pleased with it. Bob
