    Comfort Ride shocks w/o slipper springs

    We currently have a 310GK with the MORryde CRE3000 and HD shackles. It was definitely an upgrade from stock. I am thinking about adding the Comfort Ride shock system and I am curious to know if anyone has any experience with them without also having the slipper springs?

    Is the squeeze worth the juice?

    When I added mine (Joy Rider at that time) I was getting a bouncing diving board affect with my Momentum when my Fiat was in the back. After a bump the trailer would bounce and keep on bouncing. After installing the shocks it settles down immediately. Recently a friend was following me and noted how quickly the bounce settled down compared to his. I am very happy with them. Definitely worth the squeeze for me!

    If you’re fairly handy and you have some good, long & sharp drill bits, it’s not too bad. I think it was about an hour per wheel.

    I might add that when I installed mine i just put one screw in each of the top brackets and then I removed all three wheels on that side to drill the remaining holes using a small floor jack for an inverted drill press worked like a charm. But to the original question the shocks work like a champ without sliders. My bikes do not move during transport now.
