I put Progressive Suspension rear shocks on a Triumph Speedmaster, a Suzuki VS1400 Intruder and have them on my Suzuki GS1100. They were much better than OEM on all 3 bikes. The problem is, they do not make them for the CB1100. Wish they did, I would have put them on all 3 of my CB1100s. The price was very affordable, much less than Hondas OEM shocks.
Here is a pix with Black progressive shocks. Look great too!
When I bought this GS1100E, it had a $100 pair of crap shocks you see on ebay. The Proggressive ride was so much better, words cannot convey the difference. Bumps get absorbed to where you hardly notice them.
