Progressive Suspension 444 Series Shock - 12-Inch Heavy-Duty Chrome - Model 444-4058C

Experience superior ride quality with the Progressive Suspension 444 Series Shock, designed specifically for demanding riding conditions. Featuring the innovative Frequency Sensing Technology (FST), this shock automatically adjusts damping in response to bump frequency, ensuring a smooth and controlled ride over various terrains. Constructed with deflective disc valving, the shock provides precise control and consistent performance. The preload spring can be easily adjusted by hand without special tools, allowing for quick customization to your riding preferences. Each shock includes a progressive-rate spring and is high-pressure gas charged, ensuring durability and reliable performance under heavy loads. Made in the USA, the 12-inch shocks are slightly longer than stock, which may alter the head angle and enhance steering responsiveness, ideal for riders seeking quicker handling. Conversely, shorter shocks may provide a slower steering response, suitable for different riding styles. Before installation, verify that your wheel travel can accommodate shocks of different lengths without causing clearance issues, such as contact with the exhaust, chain or belt guard, or tires. These shocks are recommended for heavy-duty applications, particularly for motorcycles operating at or near maximum load capacity over 50% of the time, providing the strength and reliability needed for demanding use.
