Progressive 18-Up Harley Softail 465 Series Shocks 13.5in - Black

If you're looking to get the most out of your 2018 and newer Harley-Davidson M8 Softail, these 13.5-inch 465 Series shocks from Progressive are a solid option. They're built around a high-pressure gas monotube design, which helps keep the damping consistent, even when you're pushing the bike hard. This means a more controlled ride, whether you're cruising down the highway or navigating some twisty roads.

What sets these shocks apart is the attention to detail in their construction. You get a large 46mm bore for effective damping control, and the threaded body allows you to easily adjust the spring preload to suit your riding style and load. The 5-position rebound adjuster lets you fine-tune how quickly the shock returns after compression, helping to keep the tire planted. Plus, the beefy 16mm hard chrome shaft uses custom Viton seals, which are known for their low friction and long-term leak-free performance. Each shock is hand-built, tuned, and dyno-tested by Progressive to ensure it meets their standards before it ever leaves the shop.

These shocks are designed to fit a range of M8 Softail models, including popular bikes like the Fat Boy 114, Heritage Classic 114, and Street Bob 114. They offer about an inch of ride height adjustment depending on the spring rate you choose, and come with a limited lifetime warranty. If you're looking for an improved ride feel and more adjustability for your Harley, these shocks are definitely worth considering.
