Howard is absolutely the best suspension guy I've ever spoke to. I went with the JRI "I", and love them. The only issue I've had is my own learning curve with suspension settings, but Howard has been more than helpful with explaining everything, and explaining it again...and again... and again. 
I only wish he was closer. 
But yes.... Howard at MotorcycleMetal.com

I think all of them, you have to set the "Sag" which isn't hard. Outside of that I'm not sure, but if you go to Howard's website it walks you thru everything.

I actually thought about getting new shocks when head down this weekend, but my progressive 440's are only a year old and should be good till Biketoberfest, so I opted for a set of Daymakers instead, I'll do the JRI shocks next.

All I have to say is WOW.....I thought I liked my shocks before, I saw Howard today and he made an additional adjustment, now I just love these shocks. They work even better, you would have to ride the bike to begin to appreciate the difference from stock. I'm really happy with the JRIs.
