Progressive Suspension 412 Series Shock - 13 Inch Standard Chrome for Harley FLH/T Models

The Progressive Suspension 412 Series Shock (Part Number: 412-4072C) is a reliable upgrade designed specifically for Harley-Davidson FLH and T models. Crafted for durability and performance, this 13-inch shock features a simple yet robust design that enhances your motorcycle's suspension system without adding unnecessary complexity. Its chrome finish not only offers a sleek, classic look but also provides resistance to corrosion, ensuring long-lasting aesthetic appeal and functionality. This shock absorber is suitable for a variety of riding conditions, making it an excellent choice for riders seeking improved ride quality and handling.

Equipped with a five-position cam-style spring preload adjuster, the 412 Series allows you to easily fine-tune your ride for optimal comfort and performance. Whether you're navigating city streets or hitting the open highway, this feature enables quick adjustments to accommodate different loads and riding styles. All shocks in this series are measured from center-of-eyelet to center-of-eyelet, ensuring straightforward compatibility and installation. Some models listed may be approved for road use, but it is recommended to review the latest certification for compliance. When installing on '86-'15 XL models, modifications to or spacing of the chain or belt guard may be necessary to ensure proper clearance.

Depending on your riding preferences, selecting a shock slightly longer or shorter than the stock length can influence steering behavior. A longer shock may result in a slightly altered head angle and quicker steering response, ideal for aggressive riding or cornering. Conversely, a shorter shock can provide a slower steering feel, which may enhance stability at higher speeds. Heavy-duty applications are recommended for bikes frequently operated near their maximum load ratings, often exceeding 50% of the manufacturer's maximum. Before purchasing shocks with a different length than OEM, verify that wheel travel and clearance around the swingarm, axle, exhaust, and chain or belt guard are maintained to prevent contact issues. This shock is made in the USA and designed to deliver a cost-effective suspension upgrade that improves handling and ride quality for Harley-Davidson enthusiasts.
