Contact JD direct and he will let you know. Even if the special pricing is done with when you get the chance to purchase them, no matter the cost, it is worth every penny for this shock system.

Shotgun shock, $1250, zero complaints from wife, priceless.

Shotgunshock now fits softails with abs and the install is simple, with everything included in kit.

JD~
The rear switch for my Shotgun shock is failing, I think. how do I go about getting a new one? The up position works, but I have to play with it in the down position to get it to work. Do I need just the one switch or the entire harness with both switches?

Shotgunshock is constructed with top quality parts and completly tested before shipping. We have learned from some problems over last ten years of manufacturing air suspensions and believe that shotgunshock is very reliable and durable. When there is a problem we are happy to send a replacment, at no charge.

OK,,,OK,,,, do they ride as good as a touring bike,,, or better.???

Please answer this first before reading below...



Reason I tested a RK in 09 with the new better frame... Cause a lot of friends said U won't believe the diff tween a Softy and touring ride....


Well,, after I took the ride on the 09, I'll just say BS..... I'll keep what I have cause the RK ride IMO wasn't a bit better.

Some say,,, U have to get on the road to know the diff,,, well I took a 5day 1800 mile trip last yr with 2 others, one Ultra and one St Glide.... I am the oldest who's broken my back while the other 2 had pretty good health and 30 yr younger,, I was the only one that didn't have any pains... HELLO>>>> I'll again keep the Heritage.

So,,, if the Air shock are that much better,, then I need to know if they are even better than a Touring bike's...llll
