Progressive Suspension 412 Series Shock - 11 Inch Heavy Duty Chrome for Harley-Davidson - Part 412-4047C

The Progressive Suspension 412 Series Shock is specifically engineered for Harley-Davidson models, offering a reliable and cost-effective upgrade to your motorcycle's suspension system. Featuring a simple yet durable design, these shocks improve ride comfort and handling, making them an excellent choice for riders seeking enhanced performance. The 412's five-position cam-style spring load preload adjuster allows you to easily customize your ride height and stiffness, ensuring optimal comfort and control across various terrains.
Constructed with a full chrome finish for a sleek appearance, the shock's design includes options such as black covers, springs, and end caps, allowing for a personalized look. Made in the USA, these shocks are measured from center-of-eyelet to center-of-eyelet, ensuring precise fitment on compatible Harley models. When installing on '86-'15 XL models, some modifications or spacing of the chain or belt guard may be necessary to ensure proper clearance. The design accommodates slight variations in length, which can subtly alter the head angle and steering response—longer shocks may provide quicker steering, while shorter ones can offer a slower, more relaxed feel.
Heavy-duty applications are recommended for bikes operated near or at maximum load capacity over 50% of the time, providing additional durability and stability. Before selecting shocks that differ from OEM specifications, it is important to verify that your wheel travel and clearance are sufficient to prevent contact with the swingarm, axle, exhaust, chain or belt guard, or tires. This ensures safe installation and optimal performance, making the Progressive Suspension 412 Series Shock a versatile upgrade for your Harley-Davidson motorcycle.
