Just put a hagon on my bike last Firday. Very happy with it. Replacing the shock is not that bad of a job. The things that helped me were a wobble socket extension and a jack adaptor! This is a decent article and I did not remove my rear wheel. Took me about 20 minutes to get the old shock out and about 20 minutes to get the hagon in! Make sure you take the time to grease the needle bearings in the relay arm.

 

If you go about 1/2 way down in this article there are some good step by step and pics.
