Default 2012 FLHTK Rear shocks not taking in air

Aloha from Honolulu, Hawaii! Bought my 2012 FLHTK Limited a couple of months ago with 12,000 miles. Yesterday I was trying unsuccessfully to pump air in the rear shocks using a hand pump. I noticed while riding that it felt like the rear shocks were bottoming-out. I weigh 153 lbs. I was not able to pump air in. Felt like something was clogged. Noticed a pinch in the tiny black hose that went inside the shock body. Cut it off to where the pinch was but still no joy. Am I missing anything here? Thanks.


Sincerely,
