Product Details

When you're looking to give your 1975-1979 Honda GL1000 Gold Wing a noticeable boost in its ride quality, these Progressive 412 Series shocks are a solid option. You get a pair of shocks designed to replace your stock units, featuring a doublewall steel body construction that's built to last. They come with a chrome finish and chrome springs, giving your bike a classic look while improving how it handles bumps and road imperfections.

What makes these shocks work well is their internal design. They use a nitrogen-charged system with multi-stage, velocity-sensitive valving. This means the damping adjusts automatically based on how quickly the suspension moves, providing a smoother and more consistent feel whether you're cruising or hitting rougher patches. Plus, the five-position cam-style preload adjuster lets you easily fine-tune the suspension stiffness. You can set it up for lighter loads or adjust it for heavier riders or cargo, ensuring a comfortable and controlled ride tailored to your needs.
