I want to get some black shocks, don't really want to lower the bike if I can help it, does anyone know what size are stock?, would like progressive, but stock black ones would be great.

 

Um .. bike ???

Why not powder coat the ones you have.

 

oopps, '08 super glide

 

Your shocks ar 12"

You can find black ones all day depends on what you want to spend

 

what about the the bolt size, anything specific about them?. even if I got 11 1/2's that would'nt be a big deal would it?

 

In 08 Super Glides had 12.5" shocks, later ones(not sure when) switched to 12"

 

ok who is right, one person says 12, the other says 12.5.. need to know before I buy.. guess that half inch wont make much difference

 

Stock length IS 12.5. From Drag Specialties Fat Book.

Newer is 12" ... so I was kinda right

OP .. measure your eye to eye on your shocks. Will be 12 or 12.5 then go from there

 

will do, thanks fella's

 

Go to the Progressive site and input your bike. It will tell you stock.
The 430's will work, easy to adjust, contrast cut in black. 444 newer valving, in black.
Sky is the limit.
