Featuring innovative Frequency Sensing Technology (FST), these shocks automatically adjust damping based on bump frequency, ensuring a smoother and more controlled ride across varied terrains. The deflective disc valving further contributes to precise damping control, providing a comfortable yet responsive experience. \u003cbr\u003eAdjust the spring pre-load easily by hand without the need for special tools, allowing you to tailor the suspension to your riding style and load conditions. Each shock includes a progressive rate spring and is high-pressure gas charged, which maintains consistent damping performance even under demanding conditions. This design ensures your motorcycle remains stable and responsive, whether you're cruising or tackling rough trails. \u003cbr\u003eNote that a shock slightly longer than stock may alter the head angle slightly, resulting in quicker steering, while a shorter shock could provide somewhat slower steering. For heavy-duty applications, especially when operating at or near maximum load capacity over 50% of the time, these shocks are recommended to provide added strength and reliability. Before installing shocks that differ from the OEM length, verify that wheel travel can be adjusted without causing clearance issues with components such as exhaust systems, chain or belt guards, and tires. Proper installation ensures optimal performance and safety, making these shocks a versatile upgrade for various motorcycle models.Constructed with durable materials and finished in a sleek black coating, the Progressive Suspension 444 Series Shock delivers long-lasting performance tailored for demanding riding conditions.
