Featuring the innovative Frequency Sensing Technology (FST), these shocks automatically adjust damping by sensing the frequency of bumps, delivering a smoother, more controlled ride over various terrains. The deflective disc valving further ensures precise damping control, contributing to improved handling and stability. Equipped with a pre-load spring that can be manually adjusted without special tools, riders can easily customize the shock settings to suit their riding style and load conditions. The inclusion of a progressive-rate spring and high-pressure gas charging ensures consistent performance and durability for rigorous use.\u003cbr\u003eConstructed in the USA, these shocks are slightly longer than stock models, which may influence the head angle and provide quicker steering response. Conversely, shorter shocks could alter steering characteristics by slowing the response. It is important to verify that your wheel travel can accommodate these changes without causing clearance issues such as contact with the swingarm, exhaust, chain or belt guards, or tires before installation or purchase. These shocks are particularly suitable for heavy-duty applications, especially for motorcycles operating at or near maximum load ratings more than half of the time, providing reliable performance under demanding conditions.\u003cbr\u003eDesigned for riders seeking premium quality suspension components, the Progressive Suspension 444 Series Shock enhances handling, comfort, and stability. Its robust construction and advanced damping features make it an ideal choice for aggressive riding, touring, or heavy load situations, ensuring your motorcycle maintains optimal performance and control in all riding environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFrequency Sensing Technology (FST): Adjusts damping automatically based on bump frequency for superior ride quality\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDeflective disc valving: Provides precise damping control for enhanced handling\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePre-load spring: Easily adjustable by hand without special tools to customize ride firmness\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eHigh-pressure gas charged: Ensures consistent performance and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA: Quality craftsmanship and reliable performance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROGRESSIVE SUSPENSION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50007772168432,"sku":"13100765","price":860.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/1980\/5424\/files\/159652.png?v=1783696087","url":"https:\/\/sublimepowersports.com\/products\/progressive-suspension-444-series-shock-12-5-inch-heavy-duty-black-model-444-4019b","provider":"Sublime Powersports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
