Constructed with durability in mind, this shock features a simple yet robust design that enhances ride quality and handling. Its black finish provides a sleek look that complements a variety of motorcycle styles, making it an excellent choice for riders seeking both performance and aesthetics.\u003cbr\u003eEquipped with a five-position cam-style spring preload adjuster, this shock allows riders to easily customize their suspension setup to match riding preferences and load conditions. Whether you're seeking a softer feel for comfortable cruising or a firmer setup for aggressive riding, the adjustable preload ensures optimal performance. All shocks in this series are measured from center-of-eyelet to center-of-eyelet, ensuring compatibility and proper fitment on your Harley.\u003cbr\u003eManufactured in the USA, the Progressive Suspension 412 series shocks are approved for road use, but it's advisable to verify current certifications for your specific application. When installing on '86-'15 XL models, some modifications to the chain or belt guard may be necessary to ensure proper clearance and prevent contact with other components. Additionally, choosing shocks slightly longer or shorter than stock can influence steering responsiveness by altering the head angle, providing either quicker or slower steering characteristics.\u003cbr\u003eHeavy-duty applications are recommended for bikes operated near or at maximum load ratings over half of the time, ensuring durability under demanding conditions. Before selecting shocks that differ from your OEM length, confirm that your wheel travel accommodates the change without interference from the swingarm, exhaust, or tire contact points. The Progressive 412 shock is a versatile upgrade that improves ride comfort, handling, and style, making it an essential component for enhancing your Harley-Davidson FXD motorcycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDesigned specifically for Harley FXD models for optimal fit and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFive-position cam-style spring preload adjuster for easy customization\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBlack finish provides a sleek, modern look\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eConstructed for durability and long-lasting performance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA with high-quality materials\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eShocks are measured from center-of-eyelet to center-of-eyelet for precise installation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eApproved for road use with current certification\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompatible with various styling options, including chrome and black covers and springs\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAdjustable length options to influence steering response\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSuitable for heavy-duty applications when operated near maximum load\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROGRESSIVE SUSPENSION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50007823220976,"sku":"13100704","price":454.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/1980\/5424\/files\/159544.png?v=1783697387","url":"https:\/\/sublimepowersports.com\/products\/progressive-suspension-412-series-shock-for-harley-fxd-12-inch-black-part-412-4042b","provider":"Sublime Powersports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
