    I just bought a set of 944 Ultra standard for the rear and Heavy Duty FOrk Springs for the front as recommended by JP Cycles for my 03 FLHTCUI. It now occurs to me that if I lower the rear by an inch I need to to the same on the front. Is this correct? It also occurs to me that I didnt really need to lower the rear because I'm 5'101/2" and I flat foot just fine with the OEM shocks. COuld you confirm whether or not it will be fine riding the 944s with lowering the front? THanks

      Hey Jake, I'm in the same boat as you, although I weigh in at 185. I purchased a set of the 944s last year, installed them and haven't been happy with them since. My bike rides so stiff that I think I'm going to go back to stock for now. I just call the "Progressive Tech Hotline" last week and spoke to a guy and he basically said that I was at the minimum weight for that shock. So if I were you, I would look at going with something different. It's really sad that stock Harley shocks are a lot better ride (for us light weight guys) than this progressive shock. Apparently Progressive thinks every Harley rider is at least 200+ lbs.

      Hi Kent, I have mine installed on my 02 roadking, in this video they have them being set at 11.25 inches which I dont understand at all that is not what the instructions say. My first ride I had them at 11.25 and it was terrible the harshness was them bottoming out instantly. The instruction state sag should be set at 1.2 to 1.7 from full extension which is 13" meaning they should measure around 11.8 to 11.25 I set at 11.75 and it was worlds better but do to the roads I ride in I opted to put a little more preload in to sit right at 12" and it's very nice. To my surprise that was 5 turns form zero preload even at my light weight of 140 pounds. Once my bags are on with chaps coat, some misc. Tools and rags it's probably at that 11.75 mark. Just remeber preload will not change the stiffness of the spring only ride hight. I think allot of people don't realize the harshness is the shock bottoming out and they also think that adding preload will make it stiffer which it won't. Just what I experienced, about 1000 miles on them now alomg with front cartridge setup and im happy with them

    I been looking at shocks for my new RG. I really like the look of your shocks. I just can’t believe how expensive simple things like these and other items are. It’s ridiculous how much overpriced Harley parts are, with how many are on the road. I can add a 7-1/2” lift kit with Bilistein shocks, plus labor, on my Chevy Truck, for less than a full shock replacement on a Harley doing it myself. I know because I just had truck lifted. Takes a shop 2 days to lift truck but you can change all 4 shocks on a Harley in less than 2-3 hours. Something’s got to give. I guess stock shocks are going to stay.

    I have a set of the 944 touring shocks, with heavy duty springs. Owned them just over a year. Had them installed at Daytona bike week last March. They set my sag and installed a sticker with info inside my saddlebag. With that being said. Last few months I cannot adjust these shocks. Even with two grown people sitting on the bike. The adjuster will not move. Really sucks because we go from one to two riders all the time. Talked to y’all’s customer service and they want me to send them back, which can can take 3 months. Not expectable, for the amount of money these shocks cost. My question is. Do you have any ideas why my shocks would be doing this, can I fix them? Thanks for your time.

    • @ProgressiveSuspension1982
      @ProgressiveSuspension1982 2 роки тому

      Are you trying to turn the adjuster with rider weight on the bike? That pressure can be too much to allow the adjuster to turn. If you're adjusting with no weight on the bike and the adjuster isn't moving, there is a chance that debris has found its way into the adjuster threads and needs cleaning. The only way to do this is to use a spring compressor to disassemble the shock and clean out the threads on the adjuster as well as the damper body itself.

    This video is linked to the monotube cartridge kit for the Sportster 48, which has much different instructions than this. I had to cut my spacer for proper ride height, and it said to fill the leg without the aluminum body with the normal amount of oil, and the aluminum body leg only gets a small amount of oil, but none of that is mentioned in this video. I love the 490 shocks and monotube forks but I won't ever buy another progressive suspension product. I ordered expensive shocks and forks and reached out on Instagram, via email and on UA-cam for over a year asking simple questions that I eventually had to either figure out on my own or from someone else because there is literally 0 customer service after they get their money. It will be Ohlins or Legend next time simply for this reason alone.
