Designed with a unique ultra touring spring configuration, this shock combines the smooth ride quality and generous suspension travel of a 13-inch shock with the lowered appearance of a 12-inch shock, sitting 2 inches lower than standard touring models. This lower profile improves handling and control, especially during stops and tight turns, while maintaining comfort over long distances. Built with high-pressure gas-charged components, the shocks deliver consistent damping performance under various riding conditions. \u003cbr\u003e The 944 Series shocks are equipped with Progressive Suspension’s Frequency Sensing Technology (FST), allowing them to automatically adjust damping based on bump frequency. This results in a superior ride quality, absorbing road imperfections more effectively and providing a smoother experience. The shocks are available in three configurations: Standard (up to 250 lbs.), Heavy-duty (250-350 lbs.), and Super heavy-duty (over 350 lbs.), ensuring optimal performance tailored to your load requirements. \u003cbr\u003e The QPS upgrade kit enhances convenience by enabling preload adjustments without removing saddlebags. It features a sealed gear drive that offers the same preload range as the original shocks, allowing easy manual adjustments by hand. This flexibility is especially beneficial when switching between solo and two-up riding, providing precise control over ride height and suspension stiffness. The unique spring combination and adjustable preload make these shocks ideal for riders seeking improved handling, control, and customization. \u003cbr\u003e Constructed in the USA, these shocks are designed for durability and performance, but users should verify that wheel travel and clearance are suitable before installation. Proper installation ensures that components such as swingarm, axle, exhaust, chain, and tires do not contact other parts during operation. Whether you are upgrading for better comfort or enhanced control, the Progressive Suspension 944 Series shocks are a reliable choice for touring motorcycle owners seeking performance and adjustability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eUnique ultra touring spring configuration offers superb ride quality with 13-inch travel and a lowered look of 12-inch shocks\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSits 2 inches lower than stock touring shocks for improved handling and control\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eQPS upgrade kit allows easy preload adjustment without removing saddlebags, utilizing sealed gear drive for smooth operation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBuilt with Progressive Suspension’s Frequency Sensing Technology (FST) for automatic damping adjustments based on bump frequency\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAvailable in three configurations: Standard (up to 250 lbs.), Heavy-duty (250-350 lbs.), and Super heavy-duty (over 350 lbs.)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSpring preload can be adjusted by hand without special tools, allowing for quick customization\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eHigh-pressure gas-charged for consistent performance and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA, designed specifically for touring models for long-lasting reliability\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDesigned to improve rider control at intersections and when parking by lowering rider height and enhancing stability\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROGRESSIVE SUSPENSION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50246011781313,"sku":"1310-2500","price":1209.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0060\/5929\/4802\/files\/5561828.png?v=1779213940","url":"https:\/\/teamdreamrides.com\/products\/progressive-suspension-944-series-shock-13-inch-ride-height-ultra-touring-qps-upgrade-kit-black-gold","provider":"Team Dream Rides","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
