Frequently Asked Questions

Do these come as a pair?

Yes — this is a pair of rear shocks. Both sides bolt on together.

Can I adjust the ride without tools?

Yes. Preload adjusts by hand using the threaded collar. Rebound damping requires a small wrench but is simple to dial in.

Will these fit my Street Glide or Touring bike?

No — these are engineered for Dyna chassis only. Touring and Softail models use different shock mounts and require different part numbers.

What's the difference between 494 and Progressive's other shocks?

The 494 Sport Series prioritizes adjustability and responsive feel at an entry-level price point. Higher-end Progressive models add more tuning range or lighter weight.

Is there a California Prop 65 warning?

Yes — Cancer and Reproductive Harm warning applies. See www.P65Warnings.ca.gov for details.

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.
