Motorcycle Shocks

Smooth Out The Ride: Performance Motorcycle Shocks

Your motorcycle rear shocks are the unsung heroes of your ride. They do more than just absorb bumps; they are critical to how your bike handles in corners and how your body feels after a long day. Riding on worn-out or mismatched shocks is a recipe for a harsh ride, poor handling, and an aching back. Upgrading your Sportster suspension is one of the single best improvements you can make for both comfort and confidence.

Choosing the Right Shocks for Your Ride

Selecting the right pair of shocks will transform your motorcycle. Here's what to consider:

• Stock Replacement vs. Performance: A standard replacement shock will restore your bike's original ride quality. A high-performance shock, however, is built with superior damping and stronger springs, making it ideal for more aggressive riding, carrying a passenger, or simply getting the best possible performance out of your Harley Sportster shocks.
• Length is Everything: The length of your shocks directly affects your bike's stance and handling. A set of short motorcycle shocks will lower the rear end for a classic, low-slung bobber look. Conversely, longer shocks, like a set of 14 inch Sportster shocks, will raise the rear, increasing ground clearance and improving cornering performance.
• Understanding Progressive Springs: Many high-performance shocks use progressive-rate springs. This means they have two spring rates in one: a softer initial rate to absorb small bumps for a smooth ride, and a stiffer secondary rate that engages on big hits to prevent bottoming out.
• A Straightforward, High-Impact Upgrade: For most motorcycles, swapping rear shocks is a straightforward DIY job you can do with basic tools and a motorcycle lift to safely support the bike. It's a high-impact upgrade that you will feel immediately on your first ride.
