Featuring advanced Frequency Sensing Technology (FST), this shock absorber intelligently detects the frequency of bumps and automatically adjusts damping to provide a smoother ride across varying road conditions. The deflective disc valving ensures precise control, contributing to consistent performance and rider confidence. A pre-load spring that adjusts by hand allows for quick customization without the need for special tools, making it easy to tailor the ride to your weight and riding style. The included progressive-rate spring and high-pressure gas charge deliver reliable performance, even under demanding conditions. Made in the USA, this shock is designed to enhance your motorcycle's suspension system, with slight modifications in length potentially altering steering response—longer shocks may provide quicker steering, while shorter ones can slow it down. Before installation, confirm that your wheel travel can accommodate the change without clearance issues involving swingarm, exhaust, chain or belt guard, or tires. This shock is recommended for heavy-duty applications or bikes operating near maximum load ratings over 50% of the time, ensuring durability and sustained performance during extended or aggressive rides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFrequency Sensing Technology (FST): Automatically adjusts damping based on bump frequency for superior ride quality\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDeflective disc valving: Provides precise and consistent damping control\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePre-load spring: Easily adjustable by hand without special tools\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eProgressive-rate spring: Ensures smooth compression and rebound\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eHigh-pressure gas charge: Maintains consistent performance under demanding conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA: Quality manufacturing for durability and reliability\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompatibility note: Slightly longer or shorter shocks may alter steering characteristics; verify wheel travel for clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROGRESSIVE SUSPENSION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43032045912158,"sku":"13101232","price":783.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0012\/2545\/7758\/files\/160001.png?v=1784501505","url":"https:\/\/vtwinvisionary.com\/products\/progressive-suspension-444-series-shock-13-5-inch-standard-black-for-enhanced-motorcycle-ride-quality","provider":"V-TwinVisionary","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
