Upgrade your motorcycle's suspension with the Drag Specialties C16-0157A premium ride-height adjustable shocks, designed for enhanced comfort and performance. These 13-inch shocks feature nitrogen-charged steel monotube damper bodies with hard chrome-plated shafts, ensuring durability and smooth operation under various riding conditions. The dual-rate progressive wound springs provide a balance of softness and support, delivering a more comfortable ride while maintaining stability during spirited riding. An adjustable spring preload allows you to fine-tune the suspension to your preferences, while the ride-height adjustment capability of approximately half an inch enables customization to improve ground clearance and handling. The black finish on the springs, damper bodies, and end caps offers a sleek, unified appearance that complements a range of motorcycle styles.

Installation is straightforward, as these shocks mount with existing hardware, making them a practical upgrade for most Harley-Davidson models. However, it's important to note that shocks shorter than OEM length may reduce travel, which could impact ride quality and handling. Lowering your motorcycle with these shocks will also decrease ground and cornering clearance, so proper assessment of wheel travel and clearance is recommended before installation. Ensure that your model's existing components are compatible, particularly if you plan to modify mounting points or alter the original setup. These shocks are not suitable for use with rear lowering kits and will not fit with OE upper shock mount covers. For models with OEM-style offset mount shocks, custom mounting solutions may be necessary.

Designed for riders seeking a balance of adjustability, style, and performance, the Drag Specialties C16-0157A shocks are a reliable upgrade to improve ride comfort and handling on Harley-Davidson touring and cruiser motorcycles.

Features:

  • Nitrogen-charged steel monotube damper bodies for consistent performance
  • Hard chrome-plated shafts for increased durability and smooth action
  • Dual-rate progressive wound springs for a comfortable ride and support
  • Adjustable spring preload to customize ride firmness
  • Ride-height adjustable by approximately ½ inch for tailored ground clearance
  • Black finish with matching springs and damper bodies for a sleek appearance
  • Mounts with existing hardware for easy installation
  • Designed specifically for 13-inch length for optimal performance
  • Suitable for most Harley-Davidson models; check clearance and travel before installation
  • Not compatible with rear lowering kits or OE upper shock mount covers
