Does anyone know the rear shock length (eye to eye) on a 06' 1200L? I have a buyer for my stock rear shocks.
Thanks Alex

 

Can't you measure them? Eye to Eye.

 

Do you think I can measure the length with the bike sits on the ground? I am not sure if I have to measure them fully extended.

 

The length of your shocks are the same as on the custom 11.75", try and measure them on the bike.

 

Unless you can pick up the rear fender, syou should not have any sag with noone on the seat - your shocks are fully extended.
My '05 1200C stock shockswere 11.75"

 

Thanks!

 

The Low is lower than the Custom by a quarter-inch. 11.5". I now have 11" Progressives on mine. Much better for my short legs, and a noticeably better ride to boot.

I just measured my stock shocks from my 05 custom and they are 11.75 and they arn't on the bike. I'm pretty sure theshocks on the low are the same size but I may be wrong, I'm just going by what I heard. But then why would they call it a low if they were, unless the seat is lower?

 

11.5 in, all sizes listed on progressives web site

 

11.75" is the stock shock length. Progressive's only come in 1/2" increments and they consider the 11.5" to be the replacement length for the stock shock.
