Review on ๐Ÿ’€ Black 13.5 inch Progressive Suspension 412-4009B Shocks by Christopher Jackson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I feel like I have a new $300 bike!

These shocks are amazing for the price! My bike (05 Harley Sportster 1200R) had old, crappy and worn out factory shocks and I decided to buy them. All the reviews talk about how these shocks help handle bumps in the road, but no one has described how much better your bike handles corners! I no longer get those crushing bumps on the road, train tracks, etc that the Sportsters are famous for. My suspension no longer sags on small bumps and doesn't want to throw me off my seat. But what impresses me the most is how much better my bike handles on twisty country roads. Most Sportster and Dyna owners are familiar with that feeling when the bike leans into a tight corner and the rear suspension fully compresses and then there is a lateral jerk. I wish I could put them on my bike when I first got it. For $300 this is the best mod you can make on your bike. My bike feels like a completely different bike!
