Default New dialup shocks on a Dyna?

Just curious if anyone knows if the new dialup Roadglide-Streetglide shocks will work on a Dyna or if anyone has tried them on a Dyna? They gave an awesome smooth ride on my son's 2017 SGs!

My concern is that they're designed for the heavier bikes. How much are they? You might be able to buy upgraded aftermarket shocks dialed in for your bike if there's not a big cost difference.

I haven't looked or done anything. Was just curious since some are running the FLH air shocks on these bikes. These new shocks ride really good on the Street Glides! Simple twist of a **** to adjust ride.

If that's what your looking for then you get the same from 430 & 444 Progressive line of shocks made for Dyan models.

As mentioned above the weight of the bagger would play a role in the ride quality whereas the previous model air shocks can be more fine tunned.

if you can pick up a set cheap I would try them.. problem is everyone wants an arm and a leg for their hand adjustable shocks.. if I could get a set for $150 or less shipped I would take the chance..


set them at position 1 and go from there..
