My sister in law has a 2013 883 Superlow. This weekend she went on her first long ride with my wife and I. We rode about 600 miles over two days. I have the Street Glide shocks on my 1200 Custom they are great for me. My wife has Ohlins 3-3's on her 1200 Custom and loves them. I have read from others on this forum that the touring air shocks do not really work that well for lighter weight riders. She weighs 150.

She can't afford the Ohlin's right now and about the only option I can find for her 883 in her price range is the Progressive 412's. Anyone running these on an 883 Superlow or have any better options?

I went with 12.5" 412's and the Progressive front springs on my 2012 Superlow,made a world of difference.Total cost delivered was $300.00 and took about an hour and a half to put on.I weigh 210 and a lighter rider would probably like them even more.

Hey guys, new here... Just got a 2007 883 Low. Is the Low the same as the Superlow? Don't want to hijack Sailrider's thread, but I'm 6'4 at 230 and wondering what shocks would be good for me as well.

 

She already knows what the solution is, so don't waste money, just start saving asap for those Ohlins!

 

No they are different models
