Featuring the innovative Frequency Sensing Technology (FST), these shocks intelligently detect the frequency of bumps and automatically adjust damping settings for a smoother, more controlled ride. This adaptive capability ensures improved comfort across various terrains and riding conditions. Constructed with deflective disc valving, the shocks deliver consistent damping performance, contributing to better handling and stability. The user-friendly design allows for manual adjustment of spring pre-load without any special tools, enabling quick customization to suit rider preferences and load conditions. Each shock includes a progressive rate spring, which provides a comfortable ride while maintaining support during heavier loads. Additionally, they are high-pressure gas charged to ensure consistent damping performance over time, reducing fade and maintaining ride quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe length of these shocks is slightly longer than stock models, which may subtly alter the head angle and provide quicker steering response, ideal for riders seeking enhanced agility. Conversely, shorter shocks can slightly modify steering characteristics to favor stability. These shocks are recommended for heavy-duty applications, especially for bikes regularly operated near the maximum load capacity, ensuring durability and performance under demanding conditions. Before installation, verify that your wheel travel can accommodate the new length without clearance issues involving the swingarm, exhaust, chain or belt guards, or tires. Proper fitment is key to optimal performance and safety. The Progressive Suspension 444 Series Shock combines innovative technology with rugged construction, making it a reliable upgrade for riders seeking improved ride quality, handling, and load capacity on their motorcycle.\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 comfort\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDeflective disc valving: Provides consistent damping performance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAdjustable spring pre-load: Easily customized without special tools\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIncludes a progressive rate spring: Offers a smooth ride with support for heavier loads\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eHigh-pressure gas charged: Ensures consistent damping over time\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eLength variations: Slightly longer or shorter options alter steering response and head angle\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty application suitability: Ideal for bikes operated near maximum load capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompatibility considerations: Verify wheel travel and clearance before installation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROGRESSIVE SUSPENSION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50007761977584,"sku":"13101577","price":860.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/1980\/5424\/files\/160183.png?v=1783695257","url":"https:\/\/sublimepowersports.com\/products\/progressive-suspension-444-series-shock-11-inch-heavy-duty-for-superior-ride-quality","provider":"Sublime Powersports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
