TEC Progressive springs - any good?

Are you talking about front springs or all round. I had TEC progressive gas shocks on my T100 and they were a significant improvement over OE springs.

 

Just had them fitted by George himself at TEC first impressions are good. a longer run beckons today or next week so I'll report back

 

I have the progressive springs on my Scrambler and they made a huge difference to the ride...would def recommend them!

 

Fitted a set on my T100 while also lowering the bike as well (easy job)
I like the improved handling but also a local mechanic who track days bikes, said it was the best handling (Hinckley) Triumph he'd ridden...

 

+1

Fitted them about a month ago on my 2011 T100. What a difference they made!

 

I have progressive front springs & rear progressive shocks on my T100, tons better than standard, also good two up.
Covered about 8000 mile and no problems to date.

Just looking at these for the street twin, looks like a decent package, might have to get fronts and rears. I just wonder how lower the bike will be if i fit the lowering rears

 

Please do, I'm very interested

 

Having done a longer run recently I can give the TEC progressive fork springs a big thumbs up for comfort. Most noticeable was going over cattle grids which feel like smooth Tarmac now. One of the best modifications for the money you will ever encounter methinks

 

Looking at the TEC online shop it says £99.99 for the rear shocks, now is that for two or £99.99 per side?

 

Per pair - they also have fully adjustable gas ones for £129.95 per pair. If you going down the TEC route talk to George about your likely usage of the bike - mainly rider only (?? kgs); rider and pillion; rider, pillion and luggage - so he can supply the most appropriate springs.

 

per pair is a good price, hmmm so its not something i can just order online then?

 

Yes you absolutely can. However there is, in addition to std. spec, the option to tailor-make them.

 

I also spoke to George today, and pretty much came to the same conclusion as you, the lowering springs are for the shorter people amongst us for ease of riding and reach to the floor and thats about it! so the standard length springs are for me. so I will be putting a order in shortly for the full set front and rears, let me know how you get on Ralphy I'm interested to hear your opinion. i wonder if the street twin has the same damping layout as the T120? ill find out shortly i guess!
