Default Dynamic Dyna Rear Shock lift kit

Is any of you utilizing these? I do not yet have the cash to upgrade to taller shocks and in the time being, would like increased clearance for handling. I am on a 2016 FXDL. Is anyone using these and if so, are they a smart investment until I can gather cash for the suspension upgrade? All I am currently looking for at the time is better handling. Thank you.

Save that $120 for the longer shocks and get the real benefits of the longer shocks like better ride and handling, rather than just the increased clearance.

$120 is already 1/4 of the cost of some Basic 13.5 Ohlins, or Works shocks. Just save the money and you'll be able to get them that much sooner.

I don't think that's a very good deal. $120 for four pieces of metal.
You could try these and then save up for something better if you don't like them.

Part of the reason for getting longer shocks is to get more travel. Not just to raise the rear end up higher. Better off getting longer shocks if this is the direction you want to go.

I like what you guys have said. I will just sit tight and make a purchase of taller shocks.
