Premium Ride-Height Adjustable Shocks - 12" - Heavy Duty - Black
The Drag Specialties C16-0162HB shocks are designed to provide a superior ride experience for Harley-Davidson motorcycles with their heavy-duty construction and adjustable features. These 12-inch shocks feature nitrogen-charged steel monotube damper bodies with hard chrome-plated shafts, ensuring durability and smooth operation under demanding riding conditions. The dual-rate progressive wound springs deliver a comfortable ride by adapting to various road surfaces and riding styles. Easily adjustable spring preload allows riders to fine-tune their suspension setup for optimal handling and comfort. Additionally, the ride height can be adjusted by approximately half an inch, enabling customization to match rider preferences and motorcycle modifications. The black finish on the springs, damper bodies, and end caps lends a sleek, aggressive look that complements a variety of Harley-Davidson models. Designed to mount with existing hardware, installation is straightforward, although some models may require custom mounting if OEM-style offset shocks are present. It’s important to note that these shocks are shorter than OEM length, which may impact ground clearance and handling, especially when lowering the motorcycle or altering wheel travel. Riders should verify that their motorcycle’s clearance and travel can accommodate these shocks without causing contact issues with the swingarm, exhaust, chain or belt guard, or tires. These shocks are not compatible with rear lowering kits or OE upper shock mount covers, and may require custom mounting solutions on certain models. Overall, the Drag Specialties C16-0162HB shocks offer a robust, adjustable suspension upgrade ideal for riders seeking enhanced comfort, style, and performance from their Harley-Davidson motorcycle.
