Default rear shocks

has anyone used the lowering shocks from hd? they say that the shocks lower the seat height 3/4 of an inch. does that mean the entire back end will go 3/4 too? if anyone has pics of them installed thatd be great[sm=biker.gif]

Yes it will lower the rear of the bike 3/4.
&nbsp\\;
Unlesss you are getting a great deal, look at just buying a lowering kit (Burn Out Cycles, Arlen Ness ect) and installing it on your stock shocks, you will have the same ride but with a greated amount of adjustability. Adjust from stock to 2" lower.
&nbsp\\;
Better yet is replace the shocks with a better quality shock from Progressive ect.

I just replace my rear shocks which had the HD lowering kit installed with a set of 422's\\; I have the orignals w/kit listed on ebay. But if another member is interested in them I will cancel the auction.
