I love everything about your bike! That looks like a perfect set-up. As far as the suspension, have you had other rear shocks that you can give a comparison with?
I have the progressive 444, just wondering if what I'm missing out on?

Bike looks killer man!
Let's have some more details on the shocks (length, model, prices, & where u got them). Might be getting shocks this winter as well and been thinking of getting 12" HD Progressive 444's.

... Anyways I could not take it anymore(neither could my wife) so I bought the ohlins... They are 12 inch S36E Base Line Shocks... I purchased them from Fuel Moto and they were built to my riding style and weight... I took it out today on the twists and the bike handles so much better(I also have ricor intiminators in the front which I highly recommend as well). I also have a 2014 lowrider which handles great... with the intiminators and ohlins I think this bike now handles every bit as good...

I know you're talking about your shocks but I'm interested in your front wheel. Been looking for something that I can use to convert my 07 FXD to dual front disks and that wheel looks like it just might work?
What kind of wheel is that?

The ricors were actually my first choice, but unfortunately Ricor had an stock issue on their springs from their supplier and I could not wait any longer... That said he recommended the Ohlins as an option... Very happy with the choice and no regrets.
