Softail stock shocks
I was wondering how long stock shocks are good for? Surely it depends on a lot of factors....but do they generally last a good long time? I've got almost 25k miles on my 03. I weigh @225 lbs....prolly 25% of my miles is ridin 2 up and g/f is close to 200 lbs herself. I've adjusted them a couple times, still plenty of thread left for more adjustment.

This is a topic I need to address as well. My Heritage bottoms out very easily. As for dampening, well I need to fix the bottoming situation first so that dampening can be judged. Was going to look it up in the manual but it sounds like I need to tighten up the springs. Rear should be straight forward (?) but what about the forks? I have the problem there too.

This is the first time I've ever heard this. I was always told that of all the components, Harley skimps the most on the suspension.
