Biggest mistake I hear with 944's is not setting them heavy enough. People think they are riding stiff, when in truth they're bottoming & running on the bump stops. Start from the stiffest position & work your way softer, not the other way around.
I have the heavy springs, I'm 230..... I have them adjusted to 3 lines showing.
Give it some time... you'll like them.

Great thread as I am considering putting my 944's on my 14 Limited. I had the 944's on my 09 Street Glide and put the stock air shocks back on when I traded the Street Glide. I'm just okay with the stock air shocks on the Limited, and in fairness, I have not been able to put a lot of miles on the bike (bought it "used" in October 2015 with 811 miles). I have the 944's in a box on the shelf. I was very happy with them on the Street Glide, but that bike came lowered. I am concerned about any clearance issues going to a lower shock. Any thoughts?

Which Ohlins shocks did u put on your ultra.
i have a 2015 ultra classic low and I was thinking about the 12" (which are 11") to
replace the stock shocks. I am hearing the Ohlins might be better. I am only 5' 2" tall
and would like to lower a little, but don't wanna harder ride than it is.

If you have a lowering kit on your 14 Street Glide Special check the tire side of the bags. I had mine lowered with Bagger werks adjustable lowering kit #598157 and when I took my bags off to clean it the shocks were eating a hole into both the bags. My dealer installed it and have replaced the bags. They told me lowering it wouldn't cause any problems!! They said they have installed this kit on several other 14 SGS but the dealer said they haven't had any others with this issue but I am thinking maybe I am the only one to take the bags off to clean it. If anyone else is having this problem please let me know!!
Thanks
Thanks
Good luck......Mike

This may have been stated here - but just in case. I have a 2014 Ultra Limited. Talked to Progressive about the 944s - was told, they are OK for the Road Glide but, if you put them on a limited, you should install them upside down.
Hey, just passing along what they told me - you can call them directly.
