Drag Specialties Shocks Premium Ride-Height Adjustable Shock Absorbers for Harley-Davidson - 12.5" - Heavy Duty - Chrome C16-0167NUH

Premium Ride-Height Adjustable Shocks - 12.5" - Heavy Duty - Chrome

The Drag Specialties C16-0167NUH shocks are engineered for Harley-Davidson motorcycles, offering a combination of durability and adjustable performance. These shocks feature nitrogen-charged steel monotube damper bodies with hard chrome-plated shafts, ensuring consistent damping and resistance to corrosion. The dual-rate progressive wound springs provide a smooth ride by adapting to varying road conditions, while the adjustable spring preload allows customization for rider weight and comfort. These shocks are ride-height adjustable by approximately 1/2 inch from the listed size, enabling fine-tuning of your motorcycle's stance and handling. Designed with a sleek black finish, the shocks include black springs, damper bodies, and end caps, matching a variety of custom and stock styling preferences. Installation is straightforward, mounting with existing hardware, but note that shocks shorter than the OEM length may reduce travel, potentially impacting ride quality and handling. Lowering the motorcycle decreases ground and cornering clearance, which should be considered during installation to avoid contact issues. These shocks are compatible with Harley-Davidson models that have standard OEM upper shock mounts, but OE upper shock mount covers will not fit. They are not suitable for use with rear lowering kits and may require custom mounting on models with OEM-style offset mount shocks. Fitment includes a wide range of Harley-Davidson touring and cruiser models, ensuring versatile application across various years and styles.
