The Progressive Suspension 412 Series Shock for Harley-Davidson models offers a reliable upgrade to your motorcycle's suspension system with a focus on durability and performance. Crafted specifically for Harley bikes, this 13-inch shock features a simple yet robust design that enhances ride quality while providing excellent value. The shock's construction utilizes high-quality materials to withstand demanding riding conditions, making it an ideal choice for riders seeking a long-lasting suspension solution.
Equipped with a five-position cam-style spring preload adjuster, the 412 Series Shock allows you to easily customize your ride height and firmness to match your riding style and load requirements.

Installation considerations include the potential need to modify or space the chain or belt guard on '86-'15 XL models to ensure proper clearance. Slightly longer shocks can subtly alter the head angle, resulting in quicker steering, while shorter shocks may produce a slightly slower steering response. Heavy-duty applications are recommended for bikes that frequently operate near maximum load capacity, ensuring consistent performance under demanding conditions.
All shocks are manufactured in the USA and measured from center-of-eyelet to center-of-eyelet, providing consistency and ease of installation. Before selecting shocks different from OEM length, verify that your wheel travel and clearance points, such as the swingarm, axle, exhaust, and tires, are compatible to avoid contact issues. This versatile shock is available in various styles, including chrome or black covers, springs, and end caps, allowing you to customize the look to match your bike's aesthetics and performance needs.
