Upgrade your Harley-Davidson touring motorcycle with the Drag Specialties C16-0153A premium shocks, designed to enhance ride comfort and handling. These shocks feature nitrogen-charged steel monotube damper bodies with hard chrome-plated shafts, ensuring durability and consistent performance under various riding conditions. The dual-rate progressive wound springs provide a smooth, controlled ride by adapting to road irregularities, reducing rider fatigue and improving stability. With adjustable spring preload and ride-height customization within approximately half an inch, these shocks allow you to fine-tune your motorcycle's stance for optimal comfort and performance.
Constructed with a sleek black finish on the springs, damper bodies, and end caps, the shocks are designed to seamlessly complement your bike’s aesthetics. They mount using existing hardware, simplifying installation, but users should verify wheel travel and clearance to avoid contact issues with components such as the exhaust, chain or belt guard, and tires. Additionally, the shocks are shorter than OEM length, which may affect ground clearance and cornering ability; proper assessment is recommended before installation. These shocks are not compatible with rear lowering kits and will not fit OE upper shock mount covers, requiring potential custom mounting on certain models that have OEM-style offset mounts.
Overall, the Drag Specialties C16-0153A shocks provide a high-quality suspension upgrade for riders seeking adjustable ride height and improved comfort on their touring bikes. Whether you’re customizing your motorcycle for a specific riding style or seeking enhanced stability on long journeys, these shocks are engineered to meet demanding performance standards while maintaining a sleek appearance and straightforward installation process.

Features:

  • Nitrogen-charged steel monotube damper bodies for consistent performance
  • Hard chrome-plated shafts for durability and corrosion resistance
  • Dual-rate progressive wound springs for a smooth, comfortable ride
  • Adjustable spring preload to customize ride firmness
  • Ride-height adjustable within approximately 1/2 inch for personalized stance
  • Black finish on springs, damper bodies, and end caps for aesthetic appeal
  • Mounts using existing hardware for straightforward installation
  • Designed for Harley-Davidson touring models, compatible with OEM mounting points
