Designed with simplicity and durability in mind, this shock absorber enhances ride quality without the need for complex installation procedures. The 12.5-inch length offers a balanced riding experience, improving comfort and handling for a variety of Harley models. Its robust construction ensures long-lasting performance, making it a cost-effective solution for riders seeking reliable suspension improvements.\u003cbr\u003e Featuring a five-position cam-style spring preload adjuster, this shock allows riders to easily fine-tune their ride for varying loads and road conditions. Whether you prefer a softer or firmer suspension setting, the adjuster provides quick and precise control, enhancing overall ride stability and comfort. The black finish adds a sleek, understated look, complementing the aesthetic of many Harley models and offering excellent resistance to corrosion and wear.\u003cbr\u003e The 412 Series shocks are made in the USA, adhering to high manufacturing standards. Some models are approved for road use; please verify the latest certification for compliance. When installing on '86-'15 XL models, modifications such as spacing the chain or belt guard may be required to ensure proper clearance. Slight variations in shock length can subtly influence the head angle, contributing to either quicker or slower steering response depending on whether the shock is slightly longer or shorter than stock. For heavy-duty applications, where the bike is operated near maximum load capacity over 50% of the time, these shocks provide additional durability and support.\u003cbr\u003e Before purchasing, confirm that changing the shock length will not interfere with wheel travel, clearance with exhaust components, or contact with the chain or belt guard. Proper installation and compatibility ensure optimal performance and safety, making the Progressive Suspension 412 Series Shock a reliable choice for enhancing your Harley-Davidson's suspension system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDesigned specifically for Harley-Davidson models for a tailored fit and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFive-position cam-style spring preload adjuster for easy ride customization\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eConstructed with durable materials for long-lasting performance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSleek black finish offers corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA with high manufacturing standards\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSuitable for various riding conditions, including road use (verify certification)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompatible with '86-'15 XL models with potential modifications for proper fit\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSupports both standard and heavy-duty applications for different load requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eProvides subtle steering adjustments through slight length variations\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROGRESSIVE SUSPENSION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43031754735710,"sku":"PS4001B","price":345.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0012\/2545\/7758\/files\/160797.png?v=1784491047","url":"https:\/\/vtwinvisionary.com\/products\/progressive-suspension-412-series-shock-12-5-inch-standard-black-for-harley-davidson-412-4001b","provider":"V-TwinVisionary","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
