luvmy40 Posted November 28, 2018 Share #1 Posted November 28, 2018 I've had a set of Progressive Suspension fork springs, part # 11-1112 in my "saved for later" cart at Amazon for about six months. They've been priced at $85.00 or so, up or down a few dollars since I first looked at them. Today, I was checking on a couple orders and I saw they were priced at $58.00 but the fitment check said they did not fit my 1983 Yamaha XVZ12. I double checked the pat number of offering and and the part # Progressive listed for the Venture and everything matched up so I pulled the trigger on the springs. I hope I don't get that email telling me there was a mistake with the listing. That happened the last time I saw a great deal on the Ken Onion Work Sharp system at Amazon. They listed the sharpener at 50% of normal but cancelled many hundreds of orders due to a listing error. We'll see what happens this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The forks were a little different for the MKI (up to 85). I've scoped out the Progressive sight and they have the same PN for MKI and MKII. I'm 96.75% sure that when I bought mine there were two different part numbers for and aft 86. I did call progressive once for a little guidance on preload setting for my Vmax and my experience with their customer service was very positive, I would suggest a call to them for clarification of correct part numbers. Let us know what happens, I hope you get the right PN in that price, thats a pretty deep discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowrollwv Posted November 28, 2018 Share #3 Posted November 28, 2018 Speaking of Amazon. I have ordered a few things from them but I discontinued using them when they started hitting my card for charges that I didn't make. Then today they called and wanted people from my area to work from home for them at $25.00 an hour. Thought it was a scam and hung up with out saying a word.

Progressivesuspension.com lists the same part number for the 1983 Venture Standard and the 1989 Venture Royale, 11-1112 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vickersguy Posted November 29, 2018 Share #5 Posted November 29, 2018 I saw a $58 price but the part # was 11-1114, not 11-1112. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvmy40 Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share #6 Posted November 29, 2018 Well, the listing is back up to $84.78 and showing 19 in stock. I was charged $60.19 with tax and it was showing only one in stock when I ordered. It looks like I got lucky this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvmy40 Posted December 17, 2018 Author Share #9 Posted December 17, 2018 s.tyler58, I got the springs from Amazon a week or so ago. They are the correct springs for The Beast. If this had fallen though the cracks, my next call would have been to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
