  • JRI Shocks

    I even asked Henry if it was necessary to measure the height before and after installation to make height adjustments. He said it was not necessary and thus not necessary to flip the rear shock upside down as I've seen in other installs. I may measure just for the hell of it.


    Fed Ex came and dropped off the shocks just as I was leaving for a business trip to Saratoga Springs. So mine are home waiting for me to play.

    LOL everything was good on the Libby's ride till we went down a gravel road! Man I never seen so many dirty slingshots in one place.
    Thank god Bones did not go on the ride I think he would of shot George lmao.
    It took me 3hrs of cleaning with every chemical I own and it still needs about 3 more hours of cleaning!
    I think it would of been easier just pouring some gas on it and setting it on fire then go buy a new one 8o
    I think it's the last time we let George lead the pack!

    I wonder what road that was. I drove down from Bridgewater to Brookfield and I got to a section of 133 where the road was closed except for local traffic. It was all gravel. I stopped, looked and thought - should I do it? Then said screw that, I'm not cleaning my Slingshot the rest of the day. So I turned around

    My GF was up there with her daughter when you guys pulled in. She texted me to say 18 Singshots pulled in. I of course was doing yard work. I did manage to get about 175 miles in today.

    SO Anyone plan on hitting Libbys Sat? I may take a cruise down after sons BB quick to say Hi...Rides out as sunday looking shitty

    I'm not to crazy about large group rides in NEw Haven. From what I heard the last one wasn't too organized. Group rides and traffic lights don't mix. But the good news is a week from Saturday (as of now) they are calling for 78degrees. If you guys are free then we should plan a ride. :thumbup:

    Okay, here's Henry's reply, verbatim:
    "Hey larry! Good to hear from you! Im not a forum sponsor on that forum so I can't post up sales. have them email me direct at henry@alphapowersport.comor have them give me a call 715-600-2024 if they would like to get in on the group buy.


    take care!"

    I kind of thought that might be the case but not knowing the rules of this forum I was not about to go out on that limb.

    Well, I was waiting for a sale and if it came from cyclesprings, slingmods or Alpha, to this or the other Forum it's all the same to me. If you want shocks you can just email Henry and not go to the other Forum. I would also say you should voice your displeasure with him not posting here.

    That's a shame. I love Alpha. They're a Wisconsin company and I'm a Wisconsin guy. But I'm not going to TDS to order. They can post here. They haven't been banned from the site. Members on this site sing the accolades of Alpha products, Henry, and his awesome crew all the time. I have my guess why they rarely post here any more but if I'm right that would be a shame. Just a darn shame that not posting here will lose them a sale and of course continuing not to post here just means no future sales from me either. I've got lots of Alpha stuff and want to add more but it feels like they don't want my or our money. C'est la vie

    To each his own. Life's too short.
