Rear Shock Choices for 500.00 or LESS
Hello, I know this topic has been beaten to death but I have searched, googled and I am still confused.
I have a 2013 Limited and I have decided to put a set of 12" shocks on the rear. I ride 1 up most of the time but when I travel I pack heavy. I like the look of the 12" (thanks to forum members for the pics) plus 1" closer to the ground is fine with me. I am not very knowledgeable about shocks/suspension. I am looking at the Harley Premium Low shocks I know there are better shocks but my limit is around 500.00. I have read some good and bad reviews on the Harley shocks but all the reviews say that the premium shocks are much better than the stock air shocks.
500.00 is a nice chunk of change so if there is another shock I should be considering please let me know. I have been looking through Progressives website but all the model #'s are confusing. I am just looking for a 12" shock that is a nice improvement over stock.
Thanks very much!

Don't have to go to eBay for those Progressive prices; I just put a set of 444's on getting them within a day or two from Phat Performance. They are noticeably better then stock!

I got tired of the OEM air shocks bottoming out. Installed progressive 944's. Just returned from a 1200 mile trip to the Outer Banks. She rides like a Coupe de Ville now, just kind of floats down the road. I think they were about $525 from Eastern Performance. They shipped the same day I placed the order. I would buy them again over the OEM air shocks.
