Well I am looking for some new shocks......my bud Rhino Rider has the P-58 iShocks on his 660. I don't want to spend a fortune on shocks, but don't want cheap ones either.....Been looking at the iShock's, and some others. I want a pretty good improvement over stock.

I would say go with the Progressive 425. I sold a set to misterP with the heavy duty springs. HE said the helped a bunch. They do however lose about 1" of ground clearance.

I had Afco's on my Rhino and they were great. I have a Teryx now and had Afco's on it and they were ok. I now have WER shocks and couldn't be happier.

My choice would be stock Yamaha Sport-Shocks, fully adjustable. Un-like most of the budget ones.

They used to bring a song, but the prices have really gotten low on used sets.

I have the Progessive 425 H/D front and rear and they are awesome compared to the stock(non-Piggyback) shocks... For the way you ride I don't think Piggy backs will do you any better..

The Progressives, not knocking them, have not owned them, but have seen many complaints of the springs sagging.....

Just Put a new set of OHLIENS on mine an never thought it could make that much difference, A bit pricey but you pay for what you get. Any good shock is going to cost.
