What is the main benefit of the IFP design in these shocks?

The IFP (Internal Floating Piston) design separates the shock oil from the high-pressure nitrogen gas. This prevents oil aeration and cavitation, leading to more consistent and predictable damping performance over varying road conditions.

What is included with this set of shocks?

This product includes a set of two Fox AM Touring shocks, designed for Harley-Davidson touring motorcycles. Installation hardware is not explicitly listed as included, so it's recommended to check the product details or consult with a technician.

Are these shocks suitable for aggressive riding or track use?

These shocks are specifically designed for AM Touring applications, focusing on ride comfort for longer distances. They are not intended for aggressive riding or track use, which typically requires different damping characteristics and suspension setups.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to improve your Harley-Davidson's ride comfort on longer trips, these AM Touring shocks from Fox Powersports are a solid option. Designed specifically for touring applications, they aim to smooth out the road and keep you comfortable mile after mile. The 12-inch length is a common size for many Harley touring models, and the IFP (Internal Floating Piston) design helps keep the oil and gas separated for more consistent damping performance.

These shocks are built with a focus on ride quality. The internal floating piston separates the shock oil from the high-pressure nitrogen gas, which helps prevent oil aeration and cavitation. This means you get a more predictable and controlled damping response, whether you're cruising on the highway or dealing with less-than-perfect road surfaces. The 2.35-inch body diameter and 1.459-inch shaft diameter are substantial, suggesting a well-built unit designed to handle the demands of touring. They come as a set of two, ready to replace your stock shocks.

When installing these, it's always a good idea to refer to your Harley-Davidson's service manual for the correct procedure and any specific torque requirements. Ensure you have the proper tools to safely lift and support the motorcycle. These shocks are intended to provide an improved touring experience, so you can focus on enjoying the ride.
