Drag Specialties C16-166NUAB Premium Ride-Height Adjustable Shock Absorber for Harley-Davidson Motorcycles, 11.5 Inch Length

Premium Ride-Height Adjustable Shocks - 11.5" - Standard - Black

The Drag Specialties C16-166NUAB shock absorber features nitrogen-charged steel monotube damper bodies with hard chrome-plated shafts, providing durable performance and consistent ride quality. Equipped with dual-rate progressive wound springs, these shocks deliver a smooth, comfortable ride by adjusting spring tension based on riding conditions. The adjustable spring preload allows customization for different loads and riding preferences, while the ride-height adjustment capability of up to +/- 1/2 inch ensures precise handling and stance. Designed for Harley-Davidson models, these shocks fit a range of bikes with existing hardware and are ideal for riders seeking enhanced comfort and adjustability.

Constructed with black springs and damper bodies complemented by black end caps and eyelets, the shocks offer a sleek, uniform appearance. It is important to note that shocks shorter than OEM length may have reduced travel, potentially affecting ride quality and handling. Lowering the motorcycle can reduce ground clearance and cornering ability, so ensure that wheel travel can be altered without causing clearance issues such as swingarm or axle contact with exhaust, chain or belt guards, or tires. These shocks are incompatible with OE upper shock mount covers and are not suitable for use with rear lowering kits. Custom mounting may be required on models with OEM-style offset mount shocks, making this product suitable for a variety of Harley-Davidson touring and cruiser bikes requiring a 11.5-inch shock with ride-height adjustability.

Fitment includes a broad range of Harley-Davidson models, ensuring compatibility across various touring and cruiser bikes. Proper installation and adjustment will help maximize ride comfort and handling performance, making these shocks a versatile upgrade for motorcycle enthusiasts seeking a reliable, adjustable suspension component.
