What is the main benefit of the 412 Series shocks compared to stock?

The 412 Series shocks offer improved suspension performance through their nitrogen-charged, multi-stage valving, which provides smoother and more consistent damping. The adjustable preload also allows you to fine-tune the ride for your specific needs.

How do I adjust the preload on these shocks?

These shocks feature a five-position cam-style preload adjuster. You can rotate the cam to select your desired preload setting, which affects how the suspension responds to weight and bumps.

Product Details

If you're looking to get more out of your Harley-Davidson Sportster's suspension, these 13-inch 412 Series shocks from Progressive Suspension are a solid option. They're built to offer a noticeable improvement over stock, providing smoother and more consistent damping for a better ride, whether you're cruising around town or hitting the open road. This particular set comes in a bright chrome finish with chrome springs, giving your bike a classic look.

What makes these shocks work well is their well-built, double-wall steel body construction. Inside, they use nitrogen-charged, multi-stage valving that reacts to speed, ensuring controlled damping across different riding conditions. You can also fine-tune your ride using the five-position cam-style preload adjuster, letting you dial in the right setting whether you're carrying extra weight or riding solo. This adjustability helps maintain proper geometry and handling.

These shocks are designed to fit a wide range of Harley-Davidson Sportster models from 2004 through 2022, including popular bikes like the XL1200X Forty-Eight and the XL883N Iron 883. They are a direct replacement for your original shocks, making installation straightforward.
