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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChoosing the Right Shocks for Your Ride\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSelecting the right pair of shocks will transform your motorcycle.

The overall strut length is 12-1\/4\", and center-to-center for the eyes (mounting holes) measures 11-1\/4\". Replacing the shocks with struts is not enough. This in itself makes the shear strength of the mounting bolts take the entire load of the swingarm (which is still on a pivot despite the rigid struts). Our innovative kit includes machined aluminum spacers with rubber bumpers (that are higher quality than stock) and shim washers to properly lock the swingarm in place. The shims are necessary due to the loose tolerances from the Harley factory that we found when checking over multiple Softail frames. Our safe and secure design makes for a quick \u0026amp; easy install that you never have to adjust again.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eThe benefit to making a Softail rigid is that you can do the rest of the fabrication as if it was a complete hardtail frame. Since the rear wheel doesn't have suspension anymore, and doesn't compress toward the seat, everything can be mounted with tighter clearance. Tabs, fender struts, and all other components can be welded to the stock frame rails.
