Frequently Asked Questions

What is Frequency Sensing Technology (FST) and how does it work?

FST senses bump frequency and automatically adjusts internal damping — small bumps get soft compliance, big hits get stiffer resistance for controlled absorption.

Can I adjust the preload myself, or do I need a shop?

You adjust preload by hand with a simple twist of the threaded top cap — no special tools or shop visit required.

Do these come in different spring rates?

Yes — available in standard and heavy-duty spring rates. Choose based on your weight, cargo load, and riding preference.

What finish options are available?

Progressive 444 shocks ship in black or chrome finish to match your bike's aesthetic.

Does this come with a warranty?

Yes — Limited Lifetime Warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship.

Stiff

The shocks seem super nice, but they are incredibly stiff. Turns out they’re 130/200 top to bottom. Would be nice to have an option to choose your spring rate. Couldn’t find it in the description either. Have them installed on a 1998 sportster 1200 by the way. I’m about 180lbs and they don’t move at all, my friend who weighs about 260 also said they were way to firm. Hope this helps.
