Frequently Asked Questions
Can I adjust these shocks for my weight?
Yes — the 5-position cam-style preload adjuster lets you fine-tune the ride for light to heavy riders without changing springs.
What's the difference between standard and heavy-duty springs?
Heavy-duty springs provide stiffer support for heavier riders or carrying passengers and cargo. Standard springs suit most solo riders.
Are these shocks chrome or black?
Both finishes are available. Select your preference at checkout, and optional show chrome covers are offered on certain applications.
Do these require installation by a mechanic?
Shock installation requires removing the rear wheel and unbolting the old shocks. Rider experience varies — professional installation is recommended if you're unfamiliar with suspension work.
Will these improve my ride quality compared to stock?
Yes — the nitrogen charge and multi-stage damping provide smoother, more consistent suspension performance than most OEM Harley shocks.
