Progressive Harley Ultra Touring 944 Series Shocks 13.0in Super Heavy Duty - Blk/Gld

Progressive Suspension is well-known for making suspension components that improve the ride and handling of motorcycles, especially for touring. These 944 Series Ultra Touring shocks are built for Harley-Davidson touring bikes and are designed to give you a comfortable ride even with a lowered stance. They use Progressive's patented FST (Frequency Sensing Technology) which automatically adjusts the damping based on the road conditions, giving you a smoother ride whether you're cruising on the highway or navigating city streets. You get to keep all the suspension travel of the stock shocks, but with a 1-inch lower ride height, which is noticeable both when you're riding and when the bike is on its side stand.

These Super Heavy Duty shocks are specifically configured for riders carrying heavier loads or weighing 350 lbs and up. The progressive rate main springs are tuned for touring, meaning they offer a comfortable ride that gets firmer as needed under load. A great feature is the hand-adjustable spring preload; you won't need any special tools to dial in the right setting for your specific load or riding style. They are made in the USA, ensuring solid construction and attention to detail. The 13-inch length provides a significant lowering effect while still utilizing the full range of motion from the original suspension setup.

When installing these shocks, you'll want to ensure you have the correct tools for safely lifting and supporting your motorcycle. Because the preload is hand-adjustable, you can fine-tune the ride height and stiffness after installation to perfectly match your preferences and riding conditions. These shocks are a direct replacement for your stock units, making the installation process straightforward for someone familiar with motorcycle suspension work.
