Product Details
Progressive Suspension is well-known for making suspension components that improve the ride and handling of motorcycles. This 465 Series shock is a prime example, built specifically for the newer Harley-Davidson M8 Softail models. If you're looking to get more out of your ride, whether it's for daily commuting or longer trips, this shock is designed to make a noticeable difference.
This shock uses an advanced high-pressure gas monotube design with a large 46mm bore and deflective disc damping. This setup helps keep the damping consistent, even under hard use. The threaded body allows for fine-tuning of ride height, offering about 0.8 to 1 inch of adjustment in increments, and it comes with a 5-position rebound adjuster so you can dial in how the bike handles bumps and undulations. The beefy 16mm hard chrome shaft is fitted with custom Viton seals, which are known for being low-friction and resistant to leaks, ensuring a long, trouble-free life for the shock. Each shock is carefully hand-built, tuned, and dyno-tested by Progressive to ensure it meets their standards before it ever leaves the shop.
This particular model is the Heavy Duty spring rate version, available in several lengths to suit your preference and bike setup, including 12.2 in, 12.6 in, 13.1 in, and 13.5 in. It's designed to fit a range of Harley-Davidson Softail models from 2018 and up, such as the Fat Boy, Heritage Classic, and Street Bob. Progressive backs these shocks with a Limited Lifetime Warranty, giving you added peace of mind with your purchase.
