Premium Ride-Height Adjustable Shocks - 12" - Heavy Duty - Black

Upgrade your Harley-Davidson touring motorcycle with the Drag Specialties C16-0162HB premium shocks, designed for superior comfort and performance. These shocks feature nitrogen-charged steel monotube damper bodies with hard chrome-plated shafts, providing consistent damping and durability under demanding riding conditions. The dual-rate progressive wound springs ensure a smooth, controlled ride by adapting to varying road surfaces and load conditions, making them ideal for riders seeking a balance between comfort and handling. The adjustable spring preload allows fine-tuning to accommodate different rider weights and preferences, while the ride-height adjustment of approximately 1/2 inch enables customization for a lowered or standard look. These black shocks with matching black springs and damper bodies complement your motorcycle’s aesthetic, and are designed to mount with existing hardware for straightforward installation. Compatible with Harley-Davidson touring models, including FLH, FLT, and other similar bikes, these shocks are engineered to enhance ride quality and handling. Please note that shocks shorter than the OEM length may reduce travel and affect ride dynamics, and lowering the motorcycle can impact ground and cornering clearance. Before installation, confirm that your wheel travel can be adjusted without interference from components like the exhaust, chain or belt guard, or tires. These shocks are not compatible with OE upper shock mount covers or rear lowering kits and may require custom mounting on models with OEM-style offset mount shocks. Proper installation ensures optimal performance and safety, making these shocks a versatile upgrade for serious touring riders seeking durability and customization.
