Progressive Suspension 412 Series Shock - 13 Inch Heavy Duty Black for Harley-Davidson Models 412-4020B

412 Series Shock - 13" - Heavy Duty - Black - H-D

The Progressive Suspension 412 Series shock absorber is engineered specifically for Harley-Davidson motorcycles, offering a reliable upgrade to enhance your bike's suspension performance. Featuring a simple yet durable design, this shock provides an affordable solution for riders seeking improved ride quality and handling. Its construction ensures longevity and consistent performance, making it suitable for both daily commuting and long-distance cruising.
Equipped with a five-position cam-style spring preload adjuster, the 412 Series allows riders to easily customize their ride height and suspension response. This feature ensures optimal comfort and control tailored to individual preferences and riding conditions. The shock is available in various styles, including full show-chrome or black covers, with chrome or black springs and end caps, allowing you to match your motorcycle’s aesthetic.
Made in the USA, these shocks are measured from center-of-eyelet to center-of-eyelet, ensuring compatibility with a range of Harley models. When installing on 1986-2015 XL models, some modifications may be necessary, such as adjusting or spacing the chain or belt guard for proper clearance. Slightly longer shocks can subtly alter the head angle, offering quicker steering, while shorter shocks may slow steering response, providing different handling characteristics. For bikes operated near their maximum load capacity over 50% of the time, Heavy Duty applications are recommended to withstand increased stresses.
It is crucial to verify that your wheel travel can accommodate shocks of different lengths without causing clearance issues, such as contact with the swingarm, exhaust, chain/belt guard, or tires. Proper installation and compatibility checks will ensure safe and optimal performance. Whether you're upgrading for style or function, the PROGRESSIVE SUSPENSION 412 Series Shock offers a high-quality, American-made solution to improve your Harley's ride dynamics and overall handling.
